The most original way to restore any dress

I bet every one of us has faced the problem of scuffs or small holes on a skirt or dress at least once in their life, right in those places where any restoration would be very noticeable. But don't despair! I want to share a proven and simple method that will help give a second life to your favorite item, and no one will ever know it had any flaws😉

To rework or repair it, we will use:

• beads and seed beads, matching the color of the clothing being repaired;
• sewing supplies;
• embroidery hoop;
• lace fabric in a matching shade.

From a small piece of lace fabric, cut out motifs and elements of a suitable size. The size of the ornament depends on the area of damage on the garment. If the damaged area is quite large, you can cut out several suitable fragments and combine them into a single composition.

To make the work easy and ensure everything is sewn as neatly and evenly as possible, place an embroidery hoop over the damaged area.

Sew the cut-out elements onto the fabric where there is damage. And here is the most interesting part: when securing the element, sew beads along the contour with every stitch.

After sewing on one fragment, proceed to sew on the next.

So, all the elements are sewn on. But our flowers lack texture and are just begging to be brought to life! So, take small beads that match the shade and embroider the stems and buds.

And even though the defect was only on the hem of the dress, for greater harmony, we can sew a similar composition on the upper part of the dress.
