This Fall i've been cleaning out closets & ended up w/piles of clothes that I normally would have either taken to the local thrift store or stored in the basement till next seasons garage sale.
This cute little shirt was made from an Old Navy t-shirt of mine that i no longer wore.
this ADORABLE,cream sweater dress was made from a sweater someone gave me that i never wore.
Aalyvia said,mommy this is my favorite! It's so cozy & comfy:)
green,t-shirt skirt,made from a t-shirt I bought on clearance it wasn't my size but I bought it thinking i'll lose some weight & be able to fit into it...that never happened;) so nows it's a cute skirt!
embellishment on green skirt.
This skirt was made from an old maternity top,the eyelet was the trim @ the bottom of the maternity shirt...
Then i added some ribbon & lace to give it that little bit somthing extra.
This linen,peasant style dress was made from a linen skirt that i made for myself,w/out a pattern:),& it ended up being too small,so now it has a new life as a dress!
Aalyvia being shy:)
This was another one of those too small,bought on clearance t-shirts that is now a cute,comfy skirt for Aalyvia...
the trim is just another t-shirt that i cut in strips & ruffled as i sewed it on.
This shirt was made from one of my skirts,i later added a small lace trim along the bottom of the shirt,but i don't have a photo of it.
I've also been making LOTS of flower barrettes/pins,now that i've learned how to make them I don't think i can ever bring myself to pay 5.00-10.00 for them anymore!
Now you know whats been keeping me busy the last 2weeks,it's been so much fun,almost addicting,seeing what i can make out of somthing i normally would've thrown out or taken to a thrift store.
The best part is,i made these clothes for 0$!....
I still have more clothes that need to be transformed but i'm waiting on fresh ideas:)
good-bye for now-Ruth
