Re-fashioned Shirts

I had a white shirt and a white sweater that had started looking a little dingy but the were still in great condition so I decied to dye them so that I could still get some use out of them. The small shirt is one the girls spilled red kool-aid on and you know how that stuff never comes out so I over dyed it with a red dye diluted to a pink.

The skirt was given to me by my neice and was a Micro Mini Skirt so I used fabric from my stash to add length and a belt. I was a gifted this hand-me-up twinset and I made a flower pin out of the left over length of the belt that I made.

Jean Jacket Re-fashion

My girls wanted a jean jacket that they saw at the Limited Too and I took one look at the price tag ($42), and said, "I can make your look just like that or better". So I used my Bejeweler Heat tool and put on crystals along the pockets and the collar.

This was very easy, it took about 45 min with heating and cooling so that I could change the tips. I used three different sizes of crystals (5mm, 4mm, & 3mm). I love the way it turned out and Anastasia looked so cute in it. I will have to take a picture of her wearing it.
