Belle's NDAD Creation

The love that I have for this remake is endless. Maybe because it's bringing me back to a happy, childhood place - you'll see what I mean in a few sentences - or maybe because it's super easy and something that turns out so cute at the end. Check out what Belle made her own...

Hi Marisa, I've been following your blog for over a year and it's totally inspired me to re-purpose of my old clothes. But today I decided to do something different! Instead of a clothing piece, I found this Smurfs pillow case at a garage sale for 50c.

I loved the print so I decided to craft this into a garment!!

Yeah girl!! Turn that Smurf print into something awesome!!

I decided to make this a simple elastic skirt. I tore apart the seams, made a casing, threaded my elastic through the casing and I was done!

 I also decided to put some lace trim on the bottom that I nabbed for 20c.
