Crafty Repair and mending
Jul. 9th, 2007 02:46 pmI hate the way my bra straps start to roll and fold on my shoulders...even the wide straps on my pricey Victoria's Secret bras. Experiment time!....
The rest of the bra was in excellent condition and I'm not about to toss a $50 purchase in the bin when I can possible 'fix' it..and make it pretty also.

I measured the length of the old straps and then took them off. (No need for the lengthening and shortening tabs once the bra is adjusted to fit properly). New straps are wide satin ribbon with a decorative trim sewn on top. (This added stability to decrease chance of folding and rolling). A section of elastic on the back for flex.
The resurrected bra!
