Little Girls Upcycled Dresses!

Who knew upcycling could be so much fun!
I love natural fabrics when it comes to clothing.
This is what I started with-






Wool skirts from fashion quite some time in the past.
Chances are most people wouldn't wear these because they're so outdated.
They were made from beautiful soft wools!
This is what they look like now...



Red Pendelton Wool Jumper



Brown Herringbone Wool


Brown Houndstooth Wool


Black Wool & Black and White Houndstooth


Teal Blue Wool 

I think they're classic and cute.
I've added them to my new Etsy Shop-

  1. oh my goodness! they are so sweet. If I found those skirts I would cut them up and put them in a rug. Your idea is much cuter.

  3. Brilliant! The wool in some of the older skirts is just so much nicer than anything one finds today - especially for little girls' jumpers.
