Second Chances.

Have you ever looked at a dress or shirt and after a while thought, this could use a make-over? Now I bet your wondering "Giving clothes a make-over"?! Well believe it or not, it is possible. But of course the main decision is always up to you if whether you want to keep it, donate it, or get it over with and throw it away. But consider giving it a second chance. Now, if you have no clue or idea from where to start, here are a couple of ideas to take off with:


1. BUTTONS! Buttons are easy to find, and easy to apply. You can add your own personality through buttons. You could use big or small buttons, wooden or plastic buttons, or even buttons decorated with pearls, which ever buttons of your choice. For a plain shirt, or blouse, this can add a playful style with a personal feel.      
                                                                    
2. ZIPPERS! Zippers -like buttons, are also easy to find, and also come in various styles. With a zipper you can turn something that is plain and solid, into two half's of fun. If you have a skirt or dress that is old and plain, add a colorful zipper in the back to break the solidness. You could even add a a couple of zippers and give your dress "pretend pockets". It's fun and again, it's personalized.


Although, this might take some sewing, there are always other ways to give something a second chance.
