This gorgeous denim jacket was kindly donated as 'scrap material' due to a large hole in the collar which the owner felt was not worth fixing.
At Indigo, we felt that this denim jacket deserved another life!

To check out what it looks like now that it has been fixed, head to the Frome Library between Friday 15th July and Wednesday 20th July to have a look at Indigo's display!

🍾We’re so excited to announce that we will be (re)launching on Tuesday 3rd May! 🍾

So if you have any jeans that need fixing, now is your chance 🥳

🪡You will be able to drop off your jeans in need of repair at Share shop or Frome Hardware (remember to check opening times!)
You will then fill out a little quiz and look through our sample book detailing exactly what you want fixing, the stitching type, thread colour, etc. (this will also give you a more detailed idea of how much it will cost!).

One of our seamsters will then pick up your jeans and text you a more specific price which you can then confirm if it suits you.

Our seamsters will fix your jeans, and return them back to your drop off location, ready for you to pay and pick up again!🪡

🧵We wanted to create a really seamless (pun intended) experience for you, and we really hope you feel all the love we’ve put into this project!🧵

If you have any feedback for us, good or bad, don’t hesitate to drop us a line on Facebook or Instagram

We hope to see some of your jeans soon!

And a special thank you to SHARE:Frome, Library of Things and Frome Hardware for collaborating with us on this project, we really appreciate your support!
