Fixing things not only saves them from ending up in a landfill, but also saves money on buying new ones and develops the thought processes of their owner. No wonder they say that a thing does not belong to a person if he is not able to repair it.

Step 1
Handicrafts and rework are conquering the planet. Already the western countries are gripped by madness and resemble the "Skillful Hands" circle. Old clothes are patched up, turning them into exclusive designer items. Increasingly, designers use old furniture, lamps, everything that comes to hand to decorate the interior. After a little processing, the old thing turns into a trendy chic.
Step 2
For example, don't rush to throw away your ripped jeans. Put a patch on the torn place, preferably in a contrasting color. To do this, you need a piece of fabric slightly larger than a hole, thread and a needle. The patch can also be sewn on a typewriter. Sew on the wrong side of the jeans. Sewing on a zipper instead of a patch can make old jeans a hit of the season.
Step 3
Before proceeding with the repair of household appliances or small electronics, check whether the warranty period has expired, since self-intervention in the "insides" of the equipment will automatically void the factory free warranty. When disassembling a home appliance, laptop or mobile phone, never throw away unnecessary parts. If there is any part left, this indicates that the assembly was performed incorrectly and everything will have to be redone.
Step 4
Plumbing fixing is especially popular in our country. However, before repairing pipes and taps, be sure to check whether the common vertical riser with water is blocked, otherwise the repair of the tap threatens to result (in the literal sense of the word) in eliminating the consequences of the flood. The repaired item pleases the eye and, without a doubt, raises the self-esteem of the person who performed the repair. It's so nice to look at the thing that I gave a second life with my own hands!
