Se on ensinn\u00e4kin ekologista, mutta usein my\u00f6s edullisempaa ja muutenkin j\u00e4rkev\u00e4mp\u00e4\u00e4 kuin aina uuden hankkiminen.

Muurarin ty\u00f6skentely\u00e4 seurattuani, seuraavalla kerralla vastaavassa tilanteessa saatan ehk\u00e4 jo uskaltaa itse hoitaa homman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jos haluaisin tehd\u00e4 t\u00e4ydellisen listan siit\u00e4 mit\u00e4 kaikkea olemme korjanneet, siit\u00e4 tulisi niin pitk\u00e4 ett\u00e4 kirjoittaisin sit\u00e4 varmaan viel\u00e4 ensi viikollakin. Jos nyt jotakin esimerkkej\u00e4 otetaan vaikka ensin vaatteista: is\u00e4nn\u00e4n kevyttoppiksen, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.evildressmaker.com\/?p=17275\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">oman villatakkini<\/a>, lukemattoman m\u00e4\u00e4r\u00e4n villasukkia ja farkkuja, suurentanut hameen, pienent\u00e4nyt mekon, kiinnitt\u00e4nyt irronneita nappeja, vaihtanut risoja vetoketjuja, paikannut reiki\u00e4, ommellut umpeen revenneit\u00e4 saumoja jne. Vaatteiden korjaus ja istuvuusmuutokset on itselleni perushommaa ja purkautuneen sauman ompelusta j\u00e4\u00e4 h\u00e4din tuskin edes muistij\u00e4lke\u00e4, niin rutiinilla se tapahtuu. Tosin sit\u00e4 hommaa olen tehnyt my\u00f6skin ty\u00f6kseni. Korjaukset eiv\u00e4t kuitenkaan rajoitu pelk\u00e4st\u00e4\u00e4n vaatteisiin.

Vaikka paljon ollaan jo tehtykin, niin isossa kuvassa se tuntuu l\u00e4hinn\u00e4 pintaraapaisulle. Ammattilaisia ollaan jouduttu k\u00e4ytt\u00e4m\u00e4\u00e4n mm. hirsien kengitykseen ja s\u00e4hk\u00f6hommiin. S\u00e4hk\u00f6hommat is\u00e4nt\u00e4 osaa kyll\u00e4 itsekin, mutta Suomessa lains\u00e4\u00e4d\u00e4nt\u00f6 ei anna my\u00f6den tehd\u00e4 niit\u00e4 itse ilman ammattip\u00e4tevyytt\u00e4.

Monet korjausty\u00f6t ovat helppoja eiv\u00e4tk\u00e4 vaadi suuremmin erityistaitoja, mutta joissakin tapauksissa kannattaa tiet\u00e4\u00e4 mit\u00e4 on tekem\u00e4ss\u00e4, sill\u00e4 joskus v\u00e4\u00e4r\u00e4 tai taitamaton korjaus voi huonontaakin tilannetta. T\u00e4m\u00e4 koskee ehdottomasti varsinkin s\u00e4hk\u00f6hommia. Mummuni keittokirjankin kohdalla oli melkein k\u00e4ynyt niin, sill\u00e4 kirjaa oli yritetty korjata teipill\u00e4. Teippi oli kuitenkin alkanut kuivettua ja irtoilla, joten korjauksesta seurannut vahinko oli onneksi vain rasvatahrat kannen paperissa. Sanoisin my\u00f6s ett\u00e4 joskus ep\u00e4tavallisen kekseli\u00e4\u00e4t korjauskikat, kuten tapetin reunan kiinnitt\u00e4minen uretaanilla, kannattaa mieluummin j\u00e4tt\u00e4\u00e4 tekem\u00e4tt\u00e4. Ja toisinaan taas on hyvin vaikea edes l\u00f6yt\u00e4\u00e4 ammattilaista tekem\u00e4\u00e4n jotakin tietty\u00e4 hommaa, jolloin homman itse opettelu voi olla ainoa mahdollisuus korjaukseen. Korjauspuuhissa t\u00e4ytyy siis l\u00f6yt\u00e4\u00e4 kultainen keskitie, niin ettei tule ylily\u00f6ntej\u00e4, jotka kaduttavat my\u00f6hemmin. Nykyisin onneksi YouTubesta l\u00f6ytyy ohjeita l\u00e4hes kaikkeen ja lis\u00e4ksi netist\u00e4 l\u00f6ytyy suuri m\u00e4\u00e4r\u00e4 erilaisia maksullisia palveluita, joista voi ostaa yksitt\u00e4isi\u00e4 kursseja tai kuukausij\u00e4senyyksi\u00e4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meill\u00e4 korjaamisesta my\u00f6s nautitaan. Mik\u00e4s sen palkitsevampaa kuin saada rikkin\u00e4inen esine taas toimimaan. Korjausjonossa on jatkuvasti paljon projekteja, kuten t\u00e4ll\u00e4 hetkell\u00e4 useampia vaatekappaleita, villasukkia, muutama valaisin, vintagepolkupy\u00f6r\u00e4, vaatekaappi jne. Onpa is\u00e4nn\u00e4n korjausjonossa yksi vuoden 1923 T-Fordkin. Itse haluaisin oppia aitoa kintsugia, jotta voisin korjata ruoka-astioita elintarviketurvallisesti. Minua vieh\u00e4tt\u00e4\u00e4 suuresti japanilainen mielenlaatu jossa asioihin paneudutaan pieteetill\u00e4 sek\u00e4 ideologia siit\u00e4 ett\u00e4 korjaaminen ei v\u00e4henn\u00e4 esineen arvoa. Sek\u00e4 kintsugi ett\u00e4 boro sashiko korostavat ajatusta korjauksen kauneudesta ja arvosta. Soisin my\u00f6s l\u00e4nsimaissa omaksuttavan ajatuksen siit\u00e4 ett\u00e4 kun esine on alunperinkin tehty laadukkaasti, sen voi korjata, eik\u00e4 korjaamisessa ole mit\u00e4\u00e4n rumaa tai h\u00e4vett\u00e4v\u00e4\u00e4, p\u00e4in vastoin. Korjaaminen tehd\u00e4\u00e4n kauniisti ja siihen k\u00e4ytet\u00e4\u00e4n paljon aikaa, taitoa ja vaivaa. Se kertoo ett\u00e4 esinett\u00e4 arvostetaan ja sen halutaan kest\u00e4v\u00e4n sukupolvelta toiselle, kolhuista huolimatta.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"214\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/inenglish.gif?resize=214%2C100\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7004\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s unusual weekend at the blog, because readers are being spoilt with two posts. Apparently my brain find the publishing schedule too challenging to cope at the moment. November self-sufficiency posts theme is mending and repairing. My favourite subject! Long-time readers already know that mending is one of the main subject in my blog and I have posted quite a lot about mending clothes, blog archive here. Clothing is not the only thing I repair and post in the blog. The biggest repair project of my life is this 120 years old log house, Pinehill, which we bought in 2021. About the other bloggers mending projects you find with the links below.

First of all, it is ecological, but also quite often cheaper and more sensible than always buying new things. The longer you use each item, the smaller their carbon footprint will be. Most affordable it is, if you can do it yourself, but if and when needed, we will buy the service from professionals. Latest professional repair job we had done, was brick layer who came to make small repairs for two fireplaces. Originally I had planned to fix them myself, but then I ran out of courage and thought that perhaps I have to ask help for this project. After watching brick layer do his job, I might be able to do similar fix later myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If I would want to make full list of things we have repaired, it would take so long, I probably would be writing it still next week. To give you some examples from clothes which I have fixed: hubby&#8217;s light weight padded jacket, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.evildressmaker.com\/?p=17275\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">my cardigan<\/a>, numerous amount of wool socks and jeans, I have let out on skirt seams and taken in on dress seams, I have resewn buttons, replaced broken zippers, mended holes and sewn ripped seams etc. Mending and refitting clothes is such basic thing for me, it doesn&#8217;t always even leave a proper memory on my brain. It&#8217;s a routine thing. Allthough, I have done it for a job as well, so that might explain it. Other repairs I have done include atleast shoes, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.evildressmaker.com\/?p=16088\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">furniture<\/a>, interior textiles, carpets, jewellery, hats, bags and books. Repairing books is another thing I have done for work, back when I used to work at the library. Hubby has repaired clocks and watches, light fixtures, tools, toilet flush button, several cars, lawn mower, chainsaw, spinning wheel etc. So our repairs are various and plentyfull. We are both able to use creative problem solving on these projects.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/kotona9.jpg?resize=768%2C1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15824\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/kotona9.jpg?resize=768%2C1024 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/kotona9.jpg?resize=225%2C300 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/kotona9.jpg?resize=150%2C200 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/kotona9.jpg?resize=630%2C840 630w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/kotona9.jpg?w=800 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Talon kuistin alkuper\u00e4inen jugend-valaisin oli kipe\u00e4sti kunnostuksen tarpeessa.

So far we have repaired completely one little room, some of the lobby windows, half of the rain water drainage and small amount of outside wall. I probably tell you more about the outside wall on the blog Christmas calendar at the latest. You can read more about the utility room reno here and about the rain water drainage here. I wrote about the plans for the bedroom here. Even though we have done a lot, on the big picture, it seems just a scratch. We had to call for professionals for log replacement and electric cables. Hubby knows his way around the electric stuff, however Finnish legislation doesn&#8217;t allow us to do them without professional certificate. That probably would be very handy to have for all old house owners. So we ended up doing a deal with electrician, hubby does all time consuming installation of the cables and such and then our electric engineer comes to inspect the work and connect it to the mains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most memorable repairs for me have been <a href=\"http:\/\/www.evildressmaker.com\/?p=16183\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the 1930&#8217;s floor lamp<\/a> we repaired together, pendulum clock hubby repaired, the mourning brooch from late 1800&#8217;s I fixed and granny&#8217;s cook book I repaired on my book binding course. Most repair jobs are easy to do and don&#8217;t require any special skills, but in some cases it is worth actually knowing what is the correct way of doing things. Electric work being one of them. Sometimes repairs might make things worse if you don&#8217;t know how to do it. This was almost the case with granny&#8217;s cook book. It had been repaired with cellotape and the tape had started to dry and peel off. Thankfully this only resulted greasy glue stains on the covers. Sometimes it&#8217;s not worth it to invent exceptionally unusual ways of repairing things, like gluing wallpaper to the wall with expanding foam. Don&#8217;t do it. And then there are cases when it&#8217;s almost impossible to even find a professional to do the repairs. Sometimes learning to do it yourself is the only way to get things fixed. So best thing to do is to find the golden path in the middle and try to avoid the overkill, which might make you regret later. Thankfully these days YouTube is full of all sorts of tutorials and there is lot of payed online services with either individually payed or subscription based courses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also enjoy the repairs. Is there anything more rewarding than to be able to get broken item working again? We always have multiple things on our repair queue. At the moment there are several clothes, woolsocks, couple lamps, vintage bike, a wardrobe etc waiting for the repairs. There is even one 1923 T-Ford on hubby&#8217;s repair queue. I would love to learn to do real kintsugi, so that I could repair dishes with food-safe method. I am fascinated by the japanese mentality of getting deep into the process and taking the time to make things, but I also love the ideology that repairing doesn&#8217;t de-value the item. Both kintsugi and boro sashiko highlight the fact that when item is really well made it can be repaired and repair is not ugly or embarrasing, quite the opposite. Mending and repairs are done beautifully, with lot of skill and time. It tells to the people that this item is highly valued and owner wants it to last from generations to generations, despite of the wear and tear.  I really would love western people also to adopt this mentality more widely. <br><br><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"610\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/knit_mend3.jpg?resize=800%2C610\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17280\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/knit_mend3.jpg?w=800 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/knit_mend3.jpg?resize=300%2C229 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/knit_mend3.jpg?resize=200%2C153 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/knit_mend3.jpg?resize=768%2C586 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Korjasin kuluneen merino-neuleen neulomalla siihen uudet hihansuut.
