Easy Refashion

So I have decided that when it comes to an EASY refashion pieces, I can do it!
Don't get me wrong. I have all sorts of fashion ideas but lack two vital parts of creating.
Drawing.
I totally draw like my six year old and even then I think I might be insulting him.
And I can't sew.
A straight line I can handle. (As long as the you don't look close cause my line, isn't so straight.)
I have seen pieces at the store that I think "Oh if only I could take that in" and have tried. But after seeing the end result, I need to stick to the easy things!
SOOOO.....here is my easy and inexpensive refashioned pieces.


I found these two dresses at the DI for $7.00 together. I found them months apart and totally lucked out 'cause I wanted white Christmas dresses this year!




I took the first dress and took off the sage ribbon.  Then to each I added this gorgeous red lace I found also at a thrift store, brand new I might add!



It is nice and thick! And makes such a statement!

Love the ribbon, but they both still needed some flare. So I ran to Robert's and got two flowers at 50% off. Then I added them to the dresses. A little stitch and a safety pin so the flower can be easily removed!



Much better!



And now two beautiful dresses ready for Christmas, wrapped up under the tree! With my whole total for two dresses @ only $12.00. Not to shabby!
Now to find the perfect sweaters and shoes!



Run now! 
Go get your re-fashion on!
