Upcycling a Thrifted Dress

i find the usefull tip to the instructables site.Go there to see more tips like these...

step 1

I marked the dress 22 inches above the hem.

In addition to removing the top portion of the dress, I removed the buttons and those weird tie thingies in the back. (I actually sewed them together and used them for my waist band).

I gathered the dress, attached the waistband, created a back seam, and added a zipper.

I used some of the leftover fabric to create poCKets.

I paired my new skirt with a top I thrifted from the Goodwill for $4.00 ;)

                                       and these pearl and gold earrings.. of course I made them!
