Hi everyone!
Jen here from the
Diary of a MadMama blog!
Just wanted to show you some of my recent refashions…
I was so excited when my 9 year old daughter chose these two 49-cent tops at our local thrift store with the purpose of a refashion in mind! I love the way it turned out!
This was my "Copycat"-themed refashion for week 3 of the
Refashion Runway Competition. The inspiration was an Anthropologie outfit that altogether cost $146.00. My version began with two shirts that I purchased for 49-cents each and the pants came out of my closet. So including tax, the total cost of my version was $1.04. What a huge savings!
This was my week 4 "Summer Dress" themed challenge for the
Refashion Runway Competition. It began as a frumpy top and scrub pants that I purchased for 49-cents each and turned into one of my favorite dress refashions ever! :)
I used the scraps from my
dress refashion to make little fabric flowers to upcycle this beat-up lampshade. (I ran out of glue sticks before I could finish this unfortunately, but you get the idea for what the finished product will look like.)
These ruined shirts got cut up into strips…
…and I quickly braided the strips to make this patriotic headband…
…and this matching bracelet for my daughter. What a great way to use up scraps, huh?
For the detailed tutorials on any of the above refashions, come visit me at the

Take care! :)

Great refashions! I especially love your summer dress - that is one of the best refashions I have seen : )
Thank you! My favorite refashions are the ones that start with something slightly hideous and turn into something cute! :)
