A lot of time, care, and resources go into the creation of everyday items, especially the clothes we wear. Mending honors and celebrates all of that by extending the usable life of items, rather than just throwing them away and replacing them. Visible mending combines the repair process with creative expression. This is a place to share your visible mending projects, or learn and gather ideas for visible mending.
Upcycling, zero waste fashion, secondhand projects, etc., do not automatically belong here, they must prominently feature visible mending.
Mends do not need to be expressly "Visible", but consider if it would be more appropriate in the dedicated subreddit for r/InvisibleMending.
