Raid your stash and get your hair-swooshing-swing-on with this effortlessly adorkable refashion! Create the skirty tee dress – a quick and easy DIY frock in a flash!
Snag a t-shirt & elastic-waist skirt that have seen better days + your fave fabric dye.
Pop the waistband of the skirt over the bottom of the shirt.
Flip inside out and zigzag the bottom of the waistband to the hem of the shirt (if necessary, stretch the elastic waist so it matches up with the width of the t-shirt as you stitch).
Flip right-side-out.
Zigzag the top of the waistband to the shirt.
*I used thread in the same colour as my fabric dye & as my resulting stitches weren’t exactly straight, gave it a quick ‘doodle’ through the middle – et voila! Intentionally wonky stitches!
After a dye job in forest green my lovely new dress was complete!
Perfect with my satin scrap happy bijou necklace!

What a fabulous comment to wake up to! Thank you Julie, you’ve created a wonderful start to a grey Monday! 😉
Love this! I lucked out and found a bag with 4 different colored boxes of Rit dye in it! I was waiting to figure out what to use them on. What a great refashion! 🙂

*4 boxes of ‘found’ fabric dye is a refashionista’s dream…or at least one of ’em =O)
