A Marvelous Marble Refash

March 20, 2018March 19, 2018 TheRefashStash

This is one of those refashions of a refash. This dress was handmade by someone and thrifted by ME!

As you can see, this does nothing for me…

DSCN1496 Onto the chopping block! I chopped off the length of the dress to make it a tunic.

DSCN1497 I hemmed the bottom of my tunic.

DSCN1499 It is hard to see the detail of the dress in the before picture but it had a diagonal flap of fabric across the chest. I used the scrap of fabric from the bottom of the dress to make another flap of fabric across the chest.

DSCN1500 Lastly, I made a cut down the middle of the neckline and folded the sides back to create a v-neck. I stitched that down. I also shortened the sleeves to just about the elbow and POOF!

A new tunic!

Happy Refashioning!!!

Hi there! Welcome to my little blog! My name is Marisa, phonetically that’s Marie-sa! My goal is to change the way you look at outdated clothes by making you think outside the stitch! I am a dental hygienist by trade but that leaves me longing to show my creative side and having something more fashionable to wear than scrubs! I have always been interested in fashion and for years I have been dabbling in creating my own clothes. Now is the time to seriously get into refashioning and encourage you to do the same! I hope this little blog of mine inspires you not to pass up those oversized unsightly pieces of clothing but to transform them into something beautiful! Happy Refashioning!
