Silk Scarf Wrap Skirt




Hey there........my stash of "collections" is slowly dwindling and being "repurposed" in to something that is more functional and purposeful.
I whipped up this wrap skirt out of 6 scarves and 3 mens ties. Quite a breeze to make altho that silk is a slippery sucker to sew!!. Used a silk scarf for each panel of the 4 panel skirt and lined the 2 back panels with another two on the inside to make it less see thru. I used one of the ties to make the waistband and the other 2 for the straps to "wrap" around. Its as soft as "silk" to wear... hopefully ill get a bit of wear out of this this summer instead of scarves sitting on a shelf looking pretty xx Hope you like it xx

The skirt looks beautiful - and a such a clever reuse of the scarves and ties. Should be a lovely skirt to wear for summer. Thanks for sharing.
