Shirt to Pajama Pants Refashion


Today I was looking for some inspiration on what to do for my next refashion post.

I realized I've already made several things for my daughter. (See 49-Cent Friday: American Girl Doll Refashion, and 49-Cent Friday: T-Shirt to Girl's Dress Refashion.) 

Meanwhile, my poor sons have been left out. :(

The thing is, it's a lot easier for me to come up with cute girly refashions than boyish ones. So I thought, "hmm, who should I start with, the younger son or the older?" Then I remembered that my little guy was starting to grow out of all of his pajama pants. (Seriously, it's starting to look like he's expecting a flood.)

So I decided to make him a brand spanking new pair of jammie pants.

After searching through my massive to-be-refashioned pile of clothes, I found this…

Stretched out shirt with a hole in the armpit.
…and turned it into this…
He was happily surprised with how they turned out!
To see the detailed version of this refashion check it out on the Diary of a MadMama blog!
Have a great day everyone!

I'm afraid that's not my writing but Bill Finger's circa 1940. He was the original writer for Green Lantern!
