Transform an Old Man’s Dress Shirt Into a Toddler Dress
If you have a dress shirt that is about to fade away or have had better times, you can turn it into an adorable dress for toddler or young child in just a few steps. This video shows you how to do it.
All you need is about 20 minutes, a must-have men’s shirt, a sewing machine, and some tape. The straps of the dress will be made of ribbon, so they do not need to be turned on when cutting the fabric. Cut the dress out of the shirt, using the buttons as a marker for the middle of the dress. Sew the fabric around the neckline of the dress to create a loop that you can thread the tape through later. Sew the sides of the dress and hem the bottom. Your final step is to use a safety pin to thread the tape through the loops at the neckline to form the straps. Either make a bow out of the ends of the ribbon, or sew them together if you’re worried your little one might open the bow. As a result, you will have a cute dress that was inexpensive and quick to sew.
