Refashioning and upcycling clothes

 

I was having a bit of a clear through my wardrobe which is overflowing with clothes that I've "outgrown" :o( or which have never suited me.... I was going to pop them along to the charity shop when I thought I could maybe try refashioning them.  I've never been brave enough to hack up my wardrobe lol but have been searching for tutorials and inspiration and now I'm almost finished my first remake (pics coming soon!)

If you would like to give it a try here are a couple of links for ideas....
