Drawstring Management

Funny how a simple drawstring can add a touch of sportif to a garment, take this Edun ’Lessing’ Drawstring Tank, $95, for example. So simple, yet so sporty! Oh yes, they are supposed to be functional too. But don’t you hate it when a drawstring gets all funky and loses its way? Whether the drawstring is halfway through the little fabric tube or completely out-of-control here is an easy solution! I learned this one from my crafty mom.

Whoever invented the safety pin was brilliant, because this is all you need to salvage your drawstring. Just pierce the pin through one end of the string and guide the pin through the tunnel. Once you have restored it, I suggest tying double knots to prevent future drawstring slippage!
