Vaikka Zero Waste-kuukausi meni ja vihelsi menness\u00e4\u00e4n niin eip\u00e4 unohdeta aihetta viel\u00e4. Zero Waste on oikein hyv\u00e4 periaate otettavaksi k\u00e4ytt\u00f6\u00f6n ihan ymp\u00e4ri vuoden. Yksi Zero Wasten keskeisist\u00e4 teemoista on korjaaminen ja uudelleen k\u00e4ytt\u00e4minen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Koska olen nuuka, ja mielest\u00e4ni sukkahousut hajoavat aivan luokattoman nopeasti (lempi valituksen aihe)<\/strong>, tapanani on paikata my\u00f6s sukkahousuja. Jotkut kierr\u00e4tyshenkiset kaveripiiriss\u00e4ni k\u00e4ytt\u00e4v\u00e4t surutta my\u00f6s rikkin\u00e4isi\u00e4 sukkiksia niin pitk\u00e4\u00e4n kunnes ne eiv\u00e4t en\u00e4\u00e4 ole k\u00e4ytt\u00f6kelpoiset. Itse en voi niin tehd\u00e4 koska ihoni jotenkin \u00e4rtyy reikien kohdalta. Rei\u00e4n reunat hiert\u00e4v\u00e4t ihoa ja se on eritt\u00e4in ep\u00e4mukavaa, kivuliastakin. T\u00e4st\u00e4 syyst\u00e4 pyrin paikkaamaan rei\u00e4t melko nopeasti niiden ilmestytty\u00e4. Jos en heti ehdi sit\u00e4 tehd\u00e4, sukkiset j\u00e4\u00e4v\u00e4t korjauskasaan odottamaan operaatiota. Olen nyt venytt\u00e4nyt n\u00e4it\u00e4 hommia jo aivan luvattoman pitk\u00e4\u00e4n ja korjausosaston ty\u00f6kasa on kasvanut huippulukemiin. Niinp\u00e4 p\u00e4\u00e4tin vihdoin ottaa h\u00e4rk\u00e4\u00e4 sarvista ja taklata korjattavan sukkiskasan. Niit\u00e4 oli kuitenkin niin paljon etten p\u00e4\u00e4ssyt viel\u00e4 edes kasan puoliv\u00e4liin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Samalla tuli paikattua v\u00e4h\u00e4n muutakin. Jo useampi vuosi sitten sain kaverilta l\u00e4pikuultavan vintage-kassin. Se on ehk\u00e4 toiminut kenk\u00e4pussina tai pienen\u00e4 ostoskassina. Muistan n\u00e4hneeni samantapaisen ainakin mummullani k\u00e4yt\u00f6ss\u00e4. Kassissa oli pari reik\u00e4\u00e4, jotka saattaisivat k\u00e4yt\u00f6ss\u00e4 purkautua lis\u00e4\u00e4 ja siksi se oli j\u00e4\u00e4nyt korjauskasaan odottamaan parempia aikoja. P\u00e4\u00e4tin ett\u00e4 nyt se korjataan ja otetaan k\u00e4ytt\u00f6\u00f6n. Koska kangas on hirve\u00e4n l\u00e4pin\u00e4kyv\u00e4\u00e4, paikkaa ei voinut tehd\u00e4 huomaamattomasti. Niinp\u00e4 p\u00e4\u00e4tinkin sitten ett\u00e4 se tehd\u00e4\u00e4nkin mahdollisimman n\u00e4kyv\u00e4sti. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Japanilaiset osaavat tehd\u00e4 taidetta mist\u00e4 vain. Niin my\u00f6s korjaamisesta. Esimerkiksi rikkoutuneet astiat voidaan korjata kintsugi-menetelm\u00e4ll\u00e4<\/a> jossa palat yhdistet\u00e4\u00e4n lakalla\/liimalla johon on sekoitettu kulta- tai hopeajauhoa. N\u00e4in rikkin\u00e4inen kuppi ei n\u00e4yt\u00e4 vain yhteen liimatuilta paloilta, vaan saa uuden el\u00e4m\u00e4n ja aivan uudenlaisen upean s\u00e4v\u00e4yksen kullasta. Minusta t\u00e4m\u00e4 on aivan huikea idea, miksi emme ole kuulleet t\u00e4st\u00e4 vuosia sitten vaikka sit\u00e4 on Japanissa harrastettu vuosisatoja? Samalla tavoin japanilaiset paikkaavat vaatteita boro sashiko-tekniikalla. Boro tarkoittaa tilkkua tai paikkaa ja sashiko on kirjontatekniikka. T\u00e4t\u00e4 tekniikkaa p\u00e4\u00e4tin k\u00e4ytt\u00e4\u00e4 my\u00f6skin ostoskassiin. Ompelin paikan kiinni v\u00e4rikk\u00e4ill\u00e4 langoilla jotka erottuvat kassista selv\u00e4sti. Ei haittaa vaikka my\u00f6hemmin lis\u00e4tt\u00e4v\u00e4 paikka olisi erilainen, sill\u00e4 t\u00e4ss\u00e4 tekniikassa v\u00e4rien ja pistojen ei tarvitse m\u00e4ts\u00e4t\u00e4. T\u00e4ll\u00e4 tekniikalla voidaan yhdist\u00e4\u00e4 my\u00f6s pieni\u00e4 tilkkuja yhdeksi isoksi tukevaksi kankaaksi. Aikaaviev\u00e4\u00e4h\u00e4n se toki on, mutta siten saadaan pienetkin tilkut k\u00e4ytetty\u00e4 hy\u00f6dyksi. Kannattaa tutustua Pinterestiss\u00e4 boro sashiko-kansiooni<\/a>, sielt\u00e4 l\u00f6ytyy huikeita juttuja. Kurkatkaa samalla my\u00f6s toinen paikkaus-kansioni<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rohkaisen teit\u00e4 muitakin tarttumaan paikkaushommiin sen sijaan ett\u00e4 heitt\u00e4isitte esineen heti pois. Vaatteita on verrattain helppo paikata, mutta moni muukin esine kannattaa pelastaa takaisin k\u00e4ytt\u00f6\u00f6n korjaamalla. Odottelen my\u00f6s innolla uutta EU:n lakia tuotteiden varaosien saatavuudesta ja korjattavuudesta. Vinkkaan lis\u00e4ksi teille inspiroivan vaatetusalan yritt\u00e4j\u00e4n ja tubettajan Evelyn Woodin. H\u00e4n pukeutuu vintage-tyyliin ja pit\u00e4\u00e4 vaate-aiheista YouTube-kanavaa<\/a>. Joka maanantai h\u00e4n julkaisee videon<\/a> jossa korjataan joku vaate h\u00e4nen kaapistaan. Se voi olla ihan yksinkertainen purkautuneen sauman ompelu tai joku monimutkaisempi korjaus. Aion ottaa #mondaymending metodin itsellekin k\u00e4ytt\u00f6\u00f6n ja suosittelen l\u00e4mpim\u00e4sti muillekin. Lis\u00e4ksi linkkaan teille hardcore-version vaatteiden paikkaukseen. Japanilaiset nimitt\u00e4in osaavat my\u00f6s n\u00e4kym\u00e4tt\u00f6m\u00e4n paikkauksen<\/a> jalon taidon. Eik\u00f6 olekin aivan huikeaa k\u00e4sity\u00f6t\u00e4. T\u00e4t\u00e4 tekniikkaa on ymm\u00e4rt\u00e4\u00e4kseni k\u00e4ytetty p\u00e4\u00e4asiassa kalliiden kimonojen korjaukseen, mutta jos tekniikan taitaa niin miksei sit\u00e4 voisi k\u00e4ytt\u00e4\u00e4 vaikka vintage-vaatteisiin ja laadukkaisiin arkivaatteisiin. Mist\u00e4k\u00f6h\u00e4n he mahtavat saada korjauksiin k\u00e4ytett\u00e4v\u00e4t materiaalit jotta ne t\u00e4sm\u00e4\u00e4v\u00e4t korjattaviin vaatteisiin? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even though Zero Waste month went past, let’s not forget the issue. Zero Waste is very good principal all year round. One of the main ideas on Zero Waste is reusing and mending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because I am quite stingy and I think that tights get broken way too easy (my pet peeve)<\/strong>, I have a habbit of mending tights too. Some of my friends are not too shy about using broken tights untill they have more holes than fabric, but I can’t. My skin gets very irritated. The hole edges rub my skin and it can be quite irritating and painfull. For this reason I try to mend holes quite soon after they appear. If I don’t have time to do it right away, I just leave tights on my mending pile. I have been pushing this task way too long now so my mending pile has grown significantly. So I decided to tackle it and mend some tights. However, there was so many I managed barely even half way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time I decided to mend something else too. Several years ago I got this sheer vintage tote from a friend. Perhaps it’s been shoebag or little shopping bag. I remember seeing my Grandmother using similar bag. Bag had couple holes, which could ravel more in use, so it has been left on the mending pile. I decided to finally do that. Because fabric was so very sheer, I could not patch it invisibly. So I decided to do the opposite. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Japanese can turn anything into art. Also mending and repairing. For example broken pottery can be fixed with kintsugi method<\/a>. In kintsugi pieces are put together with laquer mixed with gold or silver powder. This way broken pottery doesn’t look just pieces glued together, but get a new life and new look from real gold. I think this is quite awesome idea, why haven’t we heard of this years ago, even though they have done this in Japan for centuries? The same way Japanese mend clothing with boro sashiko. Boro means a patch or scrap and sashiko is embroidery technique. I decided to use this method to my vintage shopping tote. I used colourfull yarns which are very visible. It doesn’t matter if the future patches don’t match, because in this technique it’s nothing has to match. With this technique it’s also possible to combine tiny little scraps together into larger fabric. It’s very time consuming work, but also utilizes tiniest pieces. It’s worth to check also my Pinterst folder for boro sashiko<\/a>, there’s awesome stuff there. And while at it, check also my other mending board<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I encourage you all to tackle in mending, instead of throwing things away. It’s relatively easy to repair clothing, but many other items are worth repairing too. I am so excited about this new EU law about sparepart availability and possibility to repair items. I am also excited to link you this awesome person Evelyn Wood. She is vintage dressmaker and teacher and youtuber. She loves vintage clothing and also posts videos on YouTube<\/a> and Facebook about mending<\/a> and sewing. Every monday she posts a video about mending. It can be simple opened seam or more complicated repair. I am going to start using her #mondaymending method to dig through my ever growing mending pile. I recommend that to you too! Also check out this fantastic hardcore mending<\/a>. Japanese master this too. If I understand correctly, this has been used traditionally to mend kimonos because they are too valuable items to throw. I think it’s just awesome and if you happen to master this skill, it works great on vintage and high quality every day outfits too. I wonder where do they get their materials to match the repaired item? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

T\u00e4n\u00e4\u00e4n paikattavana sukkahousut (yll\u00e4tys!) ja pitsisukat. Sukkikset paikkasin jo koska
halusin ne jalkaan t\u00e4n\u00e4\u00e4n. Illalla paikkaan tuon neulesukan. \/
Today on #mondaymending : tights (surprise!) and lace sock. Tights I have already done
because I wanted to wear them today. In the evening I will mend the sock. <\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Parsintasienet ovat hyv\u00e4 apu neuleiden paikkaukseen. En ole varma onko tuo metallip\u00e4inen
alunperin parsintasieni ensink\u00e4\u00e4n, mutta siihen tarkoitukseen sen ostin kirppikselt\u00e4. \/
Darning mushrooms are perfect help for mending. I’m not sure if the metal mushroom
is originally for mending, but that’s what I thrifted for. <\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Ostoskassin paikkaus v\u00e4rikk\u00e4ill\u00e4 langoilla, t\u00e4m\u00e4n tein jo viimekuussa. Koska kangas
oli hyvin l\u00e4pikuultavaa, laitoin paikaksi kaksinkertaisen tyllikankaan. \/
Shopping tote mending with colours, this I made last month. Because fabric
is very sheer, I used double layered tulle as patch. <\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
