Valentine's Day is upon us and my babies are ready, with a couple of outfits that didn't cost a thing to make. I upcycled a plain shirt for my son here and used this wonderful tutorial to make my daughter a beautiful bubble dress. From a onesie that was too short and an old maternity dress...
Follow me on my adventures in upcycling-taking things I own and creating useful items out of them. Food, crafts, and thriftiness are my hobbies! I also make and sell hoop art!

Valentine's Day Refashion - Boy's (or Girl's) Shirt!
It's almost Valentine's Day, friends, and I realized that I didn't have any Valentine's Day attire for my littles! What I do have though, are t-shirts and fabric, and a nifty new sewing machine, so I got to work on a no-cost "refashion"! This one is meant for my son, but it is completely unisex. Of course, I think anything is, but that's personal preference.

Making Boot Socks Out of an Old Sweater
Last week, I upcycled a sweater that was too tight into a soft infinity scarf. It was a no-brainer that I could upcycle the sleeves, but I wasn't sure if I wanted to do a hat or boot socks for me, or even leggings for my daughter. I finally decided to go with the boot socks.

Upcycling a Too-Small Sweater into an Infinity Scarf
Most of us have it: that beautiful sweater that we washed incorrectly and is now too small, or the one that's simply too small, but we're holding on to it, remembering the days we used to fit into it. (Nostalgic sigh.)
