100 Day Declutter - DAY 24 - A Few Items Purchased at JoAnn Fabrics Purchase To Revamp and Repair


As I have come across a few things that I want to revamp and repair as part of my declutter and have gotten rid of some stuff
  • Rust-oleum Forced Hammered Paint and Primer - $12.90 - 40% off coupon  $5.20 = $7.70
  • Black Clearance Trim - $1.99 
  • Black Thread and Magenta Thread - buy one get one free - $2.49
With this have done or plan to:
  • Paint an organizer carts with few silver steel base that I wanted to update
I came across the above can of Forged Hammered Paint and Primer in Chestnut (they didn't have gold) and decided to try that instead.
As the paint said it could be used on plastics, I tried it on a headband that had black mark on it.  Below is what it looked like before and then after one coat.  It could be because my surface is curved, but one coat still shows some of the red peeking through, but I do like the look of it.
  • Update a  Liz Claiborne blazer with the trim,  The black thread will be used on this project as well.
  • Black Jeans with a rip in them repaired with the black thread.
  • Long hoodie repaired with the magenta thread.
All of this will be with an investment of a little over $13.

Joann's usually has coupons for different things on their website here.   They also have an app that you can download on a Smartphone or Iphone and you can opt in to receive text messages for additional savings (source would depend on where you normally get your apps from - just search Joann).

Hobby Lobby carries similar items and they usually have a coupon for 40% off one regular price item on their site and if you are in the market for the same types of products and have both store in your area it would be worth researching to find out which would have the better deal for what you want to purchase,
