    About this ebook

    With how expensive clothes are getting it can be difficult (or even just annoying) to buy new clothes all the time. Especially if your family includes children because they seem to grow out of everything so quickly. Fortunately, there’s a way that you can counteract this. All you need to do is upcycle the clothes that your family currently has. It’s not as complicated as you might think because it’s not going to require you to make things entirely from scratch (at least you don’t have to, but it is an option). Instead, you’re using things you already have and reviving them a little.

    Now maybe you’ve never heard of upcycling before, but we’re going to introduce you to it throughout the course of this book. We’re going to help you understand what it means to upcycle your clothes and what it means to make sure that you are really making your clothes look their best (all over again). We’ll even go through some really neat ways to improve your clothing quickly and easily (very little artistic talent necessary). All you’re going to need is some old clothes and some accessories like buttons, pieces of lace and maybe even scraps of fabric. All those things are going to make your old clothes look like something brand new.

    Inside You Will Learn:

    ·         What is Upcycling?

    ·         Why Should I Upcycle?

    ·         How to Upcycle Your Favorite Clothes

    ·         Upcycling Your Children’s Clothes

    ·         And Much More

    You will definitely want to find out even more about how this great idea is going to revolutionize your life. It’s going to make ‘back to school shopping’ a lot more fun and it’s definitely going to make your closet look like it cost a million bucks (without costing you anything extra).

      Upcycling Old Clothes - Amy Larson

      Introduction

      Upcycling is a new way of making your clothes really shine and it’s definitely taking the world by storm. You’re going to love all the great things that you find when you look through your closet with all new eyes. It’s about turning something old and maybe a little rundown, into something completely new that you can’t wait to wear again. After all, those old clothes still have plenty of wear left in them.

      If you’re interested in saving a little money on a whole new wardrobe but you still want to make sure that you’re getting the absolute best clothes for the new season, this is the book for you. It’s time to start making some dramatic changes to the way that you buy clothes and definitely to the way that you keep and use them. Get started with something entirely new and completely you. No more scouring through department stores looking for something that might be ‘okay.’ Now you’ll get to create your own clothes that look exactly the way you want them to look.
