Refashioning

I love thrift storing! Reason being: I get to take clothes and give them a new life =) Its great.
I bought a ginormous red night gown with white polka dots for about $2 the other day.

When i saw this on the rack, i instantly thought, "AHHH!!! This is an awesome pencil skirt waiting to happen!" So I brought it home. And an hour or two of cutting, pinning, sewing, and problem solving later.... [drum roll]

TA-DAH!!!

I also made a neck tie for my friend, but i dont have a picture of it... =/ Maybe i can find one on facebook and post it over here...

Oh the joy of using your creative talents =)
