Over time the rubber had turned tacky and is leaving black residue on my clothes. How do I stop this so I can continue wearing the slacks?

To learn how to properly sew and turn your clothing garments into one’s you could wear, would be quite rewarding to say in the least. (That is if I am able to accomplish any of these DIY tasks.)

My tops, sweaters, and even coat sweaters, that are long sit atop my back end, rather than hang properly over. I would like to be able to put something heavy enough inside the bottom hem, but have not come across the clothing weights I’ve read about. A penny was suggested for drapes, however a penny does not have a hole to allow thread to sew it on…. Where can I find these weights or anything else you suggest I use?

Hi Elle
If you are up to some alteration you can take apart the hem and attach some interfacing to add some weight and then restitch. Or you can use weights you get in some haberdashery stores ( some come sewn inside tape) ( or small coins) tack them with glue inside. You will have to be careful when you wash the clothes, and when you iron them. If you use simple small steel washers these problems are solved – you can sew them, wash them . Hope this is what you needed to know.
