here's the first of my reconstructed thrift shop finds
this ensemble
used to be a $1.50 ladies turtleneck
and $ . 28 of ribbon and elastic
I love how the blue brightens her eyes.
I only hope she doesn't feel like she's

I enjoy the challenge of re-purposing clothes
but

I think I prefer the 'clean slate' of unused fabric
i think you are a genius, I think it is VERY cute, and i think lexi is just adorable! xoxox

That looks great!! SO cute!! You did a great job...

ReplyDeleteWE TOO HAVE BEEN EXPERIMENTING WITH REPURPOSING FROM our own closets full of tshirts with stains and such. The latest is a crocheted rug from old tshirt strips for joelle to sit on in her room while she plays.
