FidgetyFicus - Basic Alterations

Sometimes mending isn’t needed because of regular wear and tear. Sometimes it’s because you got into a bar fight you didn’t intend to and she ripped the strings off of your favourite shirt 🥲😂

Zips and buttons 🪡

Something I find so cool about alterations is extending the life of something! A fresh face for an old friend.

This school jacket needed a new zip, the blazer a new button.

My niece needed a cover for her pram mattress, dolly is now riding in style 😎

Socks and gloves so well worn they’re falling apart! 🧦🧤

The owner of these knitted hippie socks and gloves wanted to save these crucial parts to his winter wardrobe and reinforce them for years to come.

The gloves were an easy fix, a pop of colour and reinforcing the buttons and they’re done.

The socks we decided needed a new sole to make sure the hardwood floors weren’t going to tear them up again. As best I could, I darned the holes and covered all my work with a new grippy sole!

Scrubs! ⭐️

Workwear should be comfy and fit correctly to allow mobility. Hems too long, scrub shirt too boxy? I can fix that 🙂‍↕️

This set I shortened the shirt, hemmed the pant legs, and shortened the pants at the waist to create that perfect fit.

A little updated list of what I do and how much it can cost ⭐️

As of yesterday I’m 11 weeks post op from surgery and getting back into life and work again! It’s been one of the hardest things I’ve done to date.
