My 23 year old brother was moving last month and cleaned out his closet.
In the process he gave me over a dozen polo and button down shirts.
I was so excited to try to turn them into something fun.
Inspired by a pin by my girlfriend Abby on pinterest of course.
Then Children's Place here in town was going out of business so EVERYTHING in the entire store was $4.99 or less.
So I loaded up on t-shirts, tanks, and long sleeve shirts to "play" with.
I took a simple tank shirt with a little embelishment on top and attached the bottom half of a man's button up shirt.
I added cute little cap sleeves.
Put a ruffle around the middle for fun.
And for a finishing touch I changed out the buttons to fun flowers and butterflies.
It was not until I was finished that my niece pointed out that it looked like Snow White's dress.
Which made her love it even more.
My beautiful niece Sassy posing in her new dress for me.
I did not ask her to pose like this.
She did it all on her own.
Now you understand the nickname.
It was lots of fun to make and a fun way to continue practicing my sewing skills.
