Sugru

Wishing our wonderful community a Merry Christmas and very happy New Year 🎄🎅 It's been a great year of fixing folks, keep it up! Happy Holidays 🎉

@docum3nt What a great fix!

@sugru More domestic repair today: a wire on a baking rack had come loose, exposing a nasty sharp end. Answer: tie down with thread, cover with Sugru, no-one will ever notice, and no more cut fingertips.

We're all guilty of keeping hold of jam jars to make use of them one day... So why not make that day today?! 🙌 These DIY snow globes are super simple & make for the best mantlepiece decorations: sugru.com/projects-inspi… ☃️ Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! 🌨

@richpagemusic This is so great Richard! 🙌 Wonderful to hear that a few blobs of Sugru are sorting out some of those niggles already. The only way is up! 🎷

@revjaydub @murcielagorock We love it - you do you! 🤘

Thinking of ways to personalise your presents this year? Put your mark on it! 👊 Sugru is great for stamping - just dip your stamp into soapy water and make a clean impression. Sugru's also great for making your own stamps. Custom wrapping paper you say? Been there, done that! 💁

@revjaydub @murcielagorock Love this! 🤩🤘

@qtpop Oh this is the cutest!! 😻 We'd recommend keeping the Sugru out of cat-chewing areas, ingestion would not be ideal! 🙀

Oh, Christmas crafting 🥰🎄 It's the perfect time of year to get hands-on & we are loving this project inspo by @jagcagdesign ☃️ Take a few vintage salt & pepper shakers - & of course your Sugru - to help you create a similar army of cute, hat-wearing snowmen! Snow adorable ❄️

This is one of the best tips we can give you for mounting things using Sugru: smear, smear smear! This way, you’ll get a much stronger bond 💪 Will you be using Sugru to hang any decorations this year?

We're inspired by these paper decorations hung by Sugru founder Jane in her children's room. By smearing a small amount of Sugru onto the textured surface, she was able to create a solid based for the Sugru on the wooden hooks to adhere to.

When you think you've used up all space for decorating... think again! 🤯 Make use of every inch - yes, even the ceiling - to bring good cheer at this time of year 🥳

@Leeyong_Soo Such a great project Leeyong! Can't wait to see what you get up to next with your Sugru 🤩

It was a lovely surprise to win something simply by doing what I love - making and upcycling! Thanks @sugru ☺️ (I don't tend to talk about my #DIY on Twitter but you can check it out on Instagram at stylewilderness ) #craft #fashion #upcycling

@Leeyong_Soo Thank you so much for sharing your creation with us Leeyong! A bundle of freebies is on its way to you to continue fixing, hacking & making stuff 🎁 If you'd like to enter into our Fix of the Month comp, just tag us in 📸 or 🎥 of your repairs, or head to sugru.com/upload

@Leeyong_Soo A relative newcomer to the world of Sugru, Leeyong discovered us via the wonderful Modern Mending FB community. She's all about upcycling, mending & customising so it was only a matter of time until she discovered Sugru's much more versatile than other glues for this 😏

It's Fix of the Month time & this month our worthy winner is @Leeyong_Soo🥳 She wanted to turn this lapis lazuli pendant into a hairclip by pairing it with another in her collection. She used Sugru to marry the two together - doesn't it make for a beautiful hair accessory?!

@GeekJoshJohnson Hey Josh, sorry to hear this! Can you send us a DM with a little more information? Some photos of your repairs if you have them? Would love to work out what's happened this time and get it resolved for you. Thanks, Kelsie

Some more @rachelraisin wisdom to help make this joyous season more sustainable 👇🎄 See also: @sustainableish's A-Z for a Crap-Free Christmas... so many great tips! 🎅

For the perfect fix, colour mix your Sugru together to make the perfect shade - ideal for virtually invisible repairs 🤩

Simply smudge some Sugru onto the affected area, ensuring all edges are smoothed into the surface to ensure no gaps between the shoe and the Sugru. Wipe a soapy finger over the Sugru to polish off any lumps, bumps or fingerprints and leave to dry overnight!

Kids and adults alike, we can be a nightmare when it comes to scuffing the toes of our shoes 🤷 Luckily, with Sugru you can easily create a seamless repair that's super robust for future tripping, scuffing and falling mishaps 🙃 #MendItMonday
