The "make do and mend" movement began during World War II, specifically in 1943, as a response to wartime rationing and shortages of materials. It encouraged people to repair, reuse, and creatively repurpose clothing and household items rather than discarding them. This initiative aimed to promote resourcefulness and sustainability in a time of scarcity. The movement became a significant part of home front culture in Britain during the war.
