Before and After Wednesday

by The Dedicated House

It started with a thrifted dress and belt and then became a sewing repurpose project. Karen at Made with My Two Hands worked her magic and turned a boring look into a pretty Spring affair.

great new look, but I loved the dress the way it was= I would wear it w/cardigans or jackets and a wide belt and of coarse pearls!! perfect 1950's look.

Such a great make over. You re-made it into such a cute dress. Don't you just love finding a treasure like this?
