Bring your broken items to our Repair Café, where various volunteer repair coaches are on hand to help repair your items free of charge. We have tools and commonly needed materials on hand during the event. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to fix everything, but we are pretty sure you will have a good time while you are here. Some examples of potential items that can be fixed include:
- Electrical items: Lamps; hair dryers; plug, switch and power cord repairs; clocks; fans; games and toys.
- Clothes and Textiles: Replace buttons; patch holes or tears; mend blankets and quilts; minor doll or stuffed animal repair.
