Once again I was inspired by other people. I was browsing Made by Lex and ran across her men's shirt refashion and knew I had to try it myself!
This looks like an ordinary clearance rack men's button up shirt, right? Not when I got through with it.
From this:
I made it with a t-shirt waist band I'd seen other people try and it worked great. I also cut a strip for a ruffle, folded it in half and sewed it on. It has been so fun to wear this summer.
To this breezy summer delight:
I even surprised my friends and family with my men's shirt transformation. Now every time I wear any new skirt my little nephews ask me whether it first had been a men's shirt! haha! I guess you never know with me.
Hubs owns like a million Hawaiian shirts...I don't think he'll miss a couple of them if I turn them into skirts.... :D
ReplyDeleteThat is SO CUTE! Love it to pieces, esp. the cool neutral color scheme in the crazy Hawaiian pattern.
ReplyDeleteI love the waistband and ruffle hem. So glad I found your blog, so much great project inspirations, I'm a new follower.
ReplyDeleteWhy couldn't you make one with a flannel shirt?
