I came across and interesting article on Kaboodle today about easy wardrobe fixes with office supplies (my favorite subject of course!) and thought I would share the knowledge!
Lose a button on your shirt? Let Double-Sided Tape do the work until you can get it fixed!
Stuck Zipper? Don’t waste time battling with it, instead color it with a Wooden Pencil, which will help lubricate the track so you can easily slide the zipper up or down.
Don’t you hate when you get your nails done and the very next day you chip that pretty french manicure? Use White-Out or Liquid Paper to make your manicure look like you just stepped out of the nail salon.
Bad hair day, we have all been there, use Paper Clips as bobby pins for an emergency up-do or to pin back unruly bangs.
It is not a good day when you are working and your bra strap breaks. Hone in on your MacGyver skills and tie one end of the strap to a Paper Clip or Book Ring and hook the metal part to the base of your bra.
You look down at your pants and notice that one leg is longer than the other. Not your actual leg, your pant leg.If you find that the hem has come undone in one of your pant legs, just reach for your Stapler as a quick fix. Just fold the pant leg to your desired length and staple the hem… just make sure to be careful when you’re removing the staples later!
Scuffed shoe or exposed stiletto? Few things are as annoying as trying to walk in high heels that are missing the rubber or plastic covering of heel base. Prevent a slip by inserting the heel into a thick Eraser or gluing a slim slice of a pencil-top eraser to the exposed metal until you make it to the cobbler. Use a Sharpie to fix a scuffed shoe and make look like new.
We all dislike wardrobe malfunctions, but we hope with these tips the next time one appears, you will be ready!
