Make do and mend

01 Jun 2009 by Paul Northup

We came across a great article in Howies’ latest catalogue. It’s called Repair things, darn it and it made us think of one of the little illustrations we’ve got on the Generous website echoing that all-but forgotten art – ‘Make do and Mend’. (We’ve even made the illustration the title for our June email.)

Check out the Howies catalogue rant in full here. Also, check out the tinker.it website to get inspired about the stuff that you would be surprised that you can fix instead of ditch at home. And, if you’re still stuck with something that’s broken that you don’t know how to fix, try posting a message to fixya.com and you’ll be amazed at how quickly you get the answers you need.
