Sometimes customizing what you wear can be far more satisfying than retail therapy, and it costs little or nothing. Inspired by the current trend for craft, DIY-culture and boho chic, this is a cool, quirky and creative guide to making and customizing your own clothes, bags and accessories. Containing more than 40 projects, none of which require prior skill or a sewing machine, these are clothes that anyone of any age can make.
