Girls With The Mostest

It was me & I will have to repost the pics for you.

You buy the bra extenders then use the hook part ONLY! Sew it to the bra & VWALLA tightens the band & brings the straps in. Only thing is I have only found white extenders so my beige bra's have white hooks, but, I don't care. DH is taking more pics now so I will upload & post them for you in a minute. Very simple to do!!!!

The 3 extender bra is a VS Secret Embrace Demi in 34DD

The 2 hook is a cheap Wal Mart 36D. I cut off one of the original hooks on than one & zig zagged the edge. I hope you can see them well enough.

HTH! Let me know if you have any questions. :)

Thank you so much for posting this - I'm going to go look for some bra extenders this afternoon, and hope I can remember how to sew enough to get the job done..

.

What a great idea :).

Peepers - do you have any problem with sewing the extenders onto the lace? Has it ripped or torn the lace or anything? I'd like to do this with some of my bras... but I've been afraid of sewing onto a less "stable" part of the bra. TIA! :D

MWM, I used this technique to alter my VS Angels bra, and it held just fine on the lace. Just make sure a zig-zag stitch it used.

Thanks, PRB! That's great cause I have some 36 bands that I need shortened. Hmmm, but I don't have a sewing machine so I may have to find some alternatives. . . . Cripes!

Thanks PRB! Can we do this to make them bigger as well??

Well, Sam, that's what extenders are originally intended for - to "extend" or lengthen the bra strap. You don't sew anything in that case - just hook the extender to the bra to make the hook part longer - KWIM?

Sam this will give you an idea. They come with 2 parts the hooks & receivers. To make the band smaller I reverse the extender & only sew on the receivers.
