Power Station!!!

 I have had one of these for years, Schumacher Rechargeable AGM Jump Starter and Portable USB/DC Power Station - 1200 Amp - with Air Compressor and LED flex light. I keep it charged with my solar panels and use it to run things like a 19" tv for news in case of bad weather, charge my cell phone, and I have cooked on my Electric Hot Burner with this. It is a great thing to have on had. Not really a generator , per se, But , it does have inverter and stores power. Really comes in handy when power goes out for a bit.

Mend Your Denim To Save Money!

Learning how to mend your clothing items is a great way to save money. It is also a great way to give thrifted clothing an update!

Mending Matters: Stitch, Patch, and Repair Your Favorite Denim & More is a fun book showing ways to mend denim. Mending Matters explores sewing on two levels: First, it includes more than 20 hands-on projects that showcase current trends in visible mending that are edgy, modern, and bold—but draw on traditional stitching. It does all this through just four very simple mending techniques: exterior patches, interior patches, slow stitches, darning, and weaving. In addition, the book addresses the way mending leads to a more mindful relationship to fashion and to overall well-being. In essays that accompany each how-to chapter, Katrina Rodabaugh explores mending as a metaphor for appreciating our own naturally flawed selves, and she examines the ways in which mending teaches us new skills, self-reliance, and confidence, all gained from making things with our
own hands.
