I've been keeping busy the last few days, that's for sure. After finally deciding on a theme for Siena's birthday party, it's been non-stop "project-ing". It didn't help that I stumbled across this awesome tutorial online that shows you how to transform an old button-up shirt into a cute sundress. It just so happens that we were given a bag of button-up shirts (which Juan decided he did not want or need) and since we haven't yet taken them to the second-hand store, I'm going to use them to make dresses for Siena and a little girl in the Branch. I whipped one up yesterday morning (bloomers and all) and since it was so easy, I think I'll tackle about 5 more in the next couple of days. The shirts are all de-pocketed and ready to go and I can't wait to see how they turn out. These are poor-quality pictures, but it gives you an idea of what the project was. (Oh, and since I did bloomer capris out of the arms, I decided to shorten the dress into a top so the capris would peek out; the others I think I will mix up a bit.)
