Refashion and Reinvent Yourself

While you are cleaning out your closet, consider refashioning an old piece that you are getting rid of, into something new. Cut the sleeves off of a sweater and make leg warmers, shorten the hem on an old dress and wear it with thick tights, hang onto some interesting fabrics and make a shawl. The worst that can happen is that you'll just get rid of it anyway. Might as well have some fun!
