Let's start off by saying that we're not suggesting a return to the days of forcing young girls to spend hours learning needlework instead of studying chemistry and playing competitive sports.

However, aside from a mandatory semester or two in Home Economics class most of us are pretty useless when it comes to a needle and thread. In fairness, we're also too busy to learn this basic skill what with the aforementioned extracurricular activities in our teens and our challenging careers and family responsibilities as adults.

Fashion has also become increasingly disposable, and as a result it seems like clothing just isn't made as well as it used to be. We've all had that frustrating realization of a missing button or unraveling hem at the most inconvenient time! 

Here's a neat solution for all of you wardrobe victims out there whether you're a petite person who needs every pant leg shortened, a walking wardrobe malfunction, or someone in between: Scotch™ Essentials™ Brand!

Scotch™ Essentials™ Brand are quick-fix products designed to easily adjust or repair most of your common wardrobe woes--no sewing required! There are currently 12 clever products in the line-up, and this week's Product Review Club spotlight is on three of them.

Scotch™ Essentials™ Easy Fix Button:

• The no-sew way to reattach or add buttons
• Instantly repair or replace your loose or lost button while on the go
• Add an extra button to keep clothing secure or to personalize your style

 
Scotch™ Essentials™ Adjustable Hem Tape:

I can immediately think of four articles of clothing in my closet that I would use these products on right now. No more stacking favourite items off to the side that I'll fix "as soon as I have time" (ie: never). I'm definitely interested in trying #ScotchEssentials at my very first opportunity and I know you are, too.
