Amanda's Costumes

Amanda’s Costumes name will be changing….any ideas welcome please!

I’ve been advised to use searchable wording so something along the lines of alterations and repairs. I do make pieces but want to stick to alterations and repairs for the foreseeable.

I’m not a fan of the word ‘seamstress’ so looking for something a bit more modern - like..’Mend & Fit’ ? Although this sounds automobile related…. 😂

Please help! Come on - give some ideas?!

Food hack. Magimix sliced coleslaw minus the mayo. My children actually eat this: carrot, kale, white cabbage, savoy cabbage, red cabbage, red onion, olive oil, sunflower/veg oil, lots of s’n’p. When it goes floppy, cook it up like a stir fry 👌🙌🙌
