New Maxi Dres Refash

 One of my favorite items to refash are maxi dresses! I know they were all the rage a handful of years ago but I think by adding straps to these outdated maxi dresses it gives them a fun and updated look!

Love those flowers!

I had this top leftover from the pile of clothes my mom gifted me! I think the color will match perfectly and of course I love the lace!

I began by making the top more fitted.

Cut off the bottom half of the top.

Once the top was stitched to size it was time to out both pieces together!

I turned both garments inside out and put the maxi dress on my dress form and then the coral top ontop of that. Definitely making sure the fronts were aligned.

Lastly I folded under the original hem of the dress and stitched that in place to make a new hem. Since I’m short I didn’t want this dress to drag on the ground entirely, even if it is a maxi dress.

Happy Refashioning, Crafting and Upscaling!!!

Stripes & Lace

 Hello Refashion Co-op. Is it fall yet? I know it's coming soon but it is so hot that I am going to keep the summer refashions coming for a couple weeks. 

I liked both of these blue and white striped shirts. The mostly blue one was a little snug. The mostly white shirt was one of those of-the-shoulder shirts that always ride up on me. It has the prettiest lace though. 

I used some of the white shirt to replace the back of the mostly blue shirt. I made it wider at the bottom to open up and loosen the shirt. 

Of course I used the lace at the hem and on the sleeves. 

I also used the extra blue fabric to make some quick no-sew masks. These are my favorite style because they fit snug and are softy on the ears. I need to wear them at work. If you need some try this idea.

Your face might be smaller or larger but the shape is what matters. I tuck the top of the mask in on the sides of my nose. It stays put and helps keep my glasses from fogging up.

You can wear more than one mask at once and they are totally washable. The knit material won't fray in the wash.
