RECRAFTED – Alycia Hill

      A couple of weeks ago I asked my Facebook friends for their help!!! I needed to know which 1 of 4 looks they would like for me to show them the reconstruction process in order to complete that dress. The crowd favorite was the burgundy dress with ruffles. The first steps included gathering all of the needed material that I found in Goodwill. For this dress I used a burgundy ruffled shirt, a bed sheet as well as a curtain.      *Next I had to seam rip the entire shirt separating the ruffles, sleeves, and sheer overlay. [...]

Mayhem My Muse!

If you haven't heard about FashionbyMayhem. No worries, let me fill you in! Mayhem is this 4 year old that enjoys making paper dresses with her mother, Angie.

Then one day Angie suggested to Mayhem that they should make a paper dress because she was growing tired of her clothes being left behind in Mayhem's room. Mayhem took a great liking to this idea and since then has demanded to create more paper [...]
