Refashion: Pillow Case

The fun things about this outfit:
Skirt - Made by Me, Shirt - Refashioned, Belt - Somewhere $5, Watch - Thrifted, Shoes - DSW, Necklace - Free

That's right everyone! This skirt was a pillow case. Look down your nose at me if you want to, but I say Heck Yes, I did that! 

It was so fast and easy! 
1. Get a pillow case.
2. Cut the closed end of the pillow case off.
3. Hem the side you just cut.
4. Thread elastic through the hem and sew shut.
5. Wear that business!

Seriously, this is an outfit of epic proportions. The t-shirt I'm wearing is from a few years ago at camp. I love the t-shirt. It's bright! But I don't really sport a crew neck T very often. So I chopped off the sleeves and neckline, and whipped it on... And what do ya know? It looked legit. 

And that my friends, is how to dress on the cheap!

Colossians 3:1-2
If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.

  3. How creative! Seriously, seeing what you (and other bloggers) are doing to make or altar their own clothes is making me seriously consider getting a sewing machine!
