Spring Cleaning and New Creations
Spring is technically a little more than a month away, but yesterday morning was so beautiful that I decided to get a jump start on my spring cleaning. And the first stop on the cleaning route was my closet...
I don't have a hard time getting rid of things. If I haven't worn it at all in the last three months, then it is gone without a second thought, if I've only worn it once or twice, it's put in a consideration pile which I go through at the end of the cleaning. Then there is the final category which is alterations. I am a huge fan of alterations. If you aren't wearing it the way it is, perhaps there is something you can fix on it to make it more your style.
I am a huge fan of alterations and have been doing so many recently I feel like I've been spending most of my time with a thread and needle in my hand!
The most common alterations that I find help me like a piece of clothing are 1. shorting the hem line on weird, calf length skirts and dresses and 2. adjusting the neckline on t-shirts, ect. These two things can make a world of difference to the way you see your clothes.
But, really the best way to understand what I mean is to see it. Expect pictures soon.
