Make Do & Mend!
With all the talk of the credit crunchs, we thought it might be worth including a section on DIY links for things you can do to save yourself some money & help the planet at the same time. At the moment its in the form of links while we try out some of the ideas out ourselves but hopefully this will develop as time goes on:
www.instructables.com how to make a new outfit from an old sweater!
www.makingyourown.co.uk this site has loads of information on everything from making your own cosmetics to bird feeders and save a fortune by making your own cleaning products.
www.nomorespending.net an odd one for this but caught my interest - the diary of a reformed spendaholic.
www.openmagazine.co.uk article on make do and mend ideas for the fashion conscious.
