I found this dress at a thrift store during my N.Y trip last year. Right when I laid my eyes on it, I knew it’d look great as an A-line skirt, with the beautiful scallop details and the ribbon trim.
BEFORE:
I cut the top part off and used the criss-cross straps as a waist-band for the skirt.
sewed the two straps into a one long strap to make the waist band.
AFTER:
Estimated Time: 45 minutes
Skill Level: intermediate
Price: $7.00
You've got mad sewing skills, but an even better eye for good design~

What a beautiful transformation! We'd love it if you linked up to our Do Tell Tuesday party–I'd love more fabulous sewing projects to feature!
Sarah, such a cute DIY! I need to get back into doing some of these. This entire look is very well put together. I have been so drawn to hot pinks/fuchsias lately. 🙂 You did well love! BTW – every time I visit your page, the 1st thing I see is your header and I can't help but smile. Such cuties!

I wish I had skills like yours!! that looks fabulous!
This turned out wonderfully. It looks like it was always a skirt! I am always so inspired by the items you alter and how you can envision what they could be!
