How to use old chiffon sarees in 8 fantastic ways

As we all know that many of our sarees have some sentiments attached to them and are very close to our heart, but at the same time we find them torn at many places which makes us feel sad. Today I will mention some beautiful reuses of these torn sarees. If your old chiffon saree is torn from the pallu or edges you can attach a silk border at the edge to get rid of the torn part. You can also use Kundan work borders, Katha stitch borders with some nice hangings at the edges. This gives a completely new look to the saree.
