My old bras are okay, except for their straps. Anyone ever replace their bra straps? What did you use and how did it work out?
Thanks.

Ok, I'm the queen of franken-wear - I hate buying new underwear and have been known to patch, remove stretched-out panels, and otherwise mend any and all types of undies. And no, they DON'T always look good, but they work, lol. Bra straps are an easy replacement - you can buy new straps, if you want, but I just use elastic. I like the softer kind, but I use whatever I have on hand. Sometimes I mess around and use the adjusting rings, and sometimes I just sew on the proper length of elastic. I googled around and found this - it may help:

Have fun! :D

Thanks early morning. I'm a franken-wear person too! I just don't care much anymore how something looks, as long as it is functional, comfy, and clean!
I will check out that link.
Thanks again!
