Does your spouse have a bunch of dress shirts in his closet that he no longer wears?? Try sending them to Etsy seller allthenumbers. She’ll take that little worn shirt and turn it into a dress your daughter will love to wear! She even suggests that this would be a great gift for a new Dad or a Dad to be. How about a Christmas gift for that new father on your list? One day she’ll be big enough to steal his shirts from him anyways!
This Etsy seller has a ton of great listings for little girls on her site including peasant dresses or shirts that I absolutely adore, some beautiful A-line shift dresses that any girl would love, reversible pinafores that are as practical as they are gorgeous, some fantastic quilts (some include vintage fabrics!) and a range of ultra girly and comfy upcycled dresses.
This Etsy crafter is clearly gifted in the area of sewing and isn’t exactly a slouch in the creativity department either!! It takes both creativity and skill to see these beautiful dresses from men’s shirts. If you don’t happen to have any shirts laying around for your little one to wear, contact allthenumbers as she seems to be collecting them for just such an occassion! She even has a few Mariachi tuxedo shirts around to make the dresses out of. These are just simply adorable!! These dresses are definitely going on my daughter’s Christmas list this year!
Crafters like this make it easier to live a green-er life by having the skills and creativity that others may lack. They can turn something that may be headed to the trash bin back into an item that is loved and used constantly. Thanks allthenumbers!! Crafters like you are making families and the world a little green-er with every project you complete.
