Thrift Flip | DIY Pinafore Dress From a Men's Button Up Shirt

For this thrift flip, all you need is a button up shirt, and it doesn't even need to be very large. I used one that my younger brother outgrew, but you can find button ups in basically any thrift store! To be completely honest I wasn't totally sure if this was going to work, but I am kind of obsessed with the results!

I've been attempting this project for 6 days now. I was at the part with the skirt. Once I was done sewing it, before the part with the darts, I realized it doesn't fit..too small 😢 but I have to admit it was fun.. and I will be going back to the thrift store to buy another mens shirt 😅 I think it was my fault since I jumped the gun and cut the sides of the shirt...then resewed them back... Therefore losing some more material 😢 well I definitely learned from my mistakes and I want to give this another go! This time I'll be looking for a flannel and it HAS to be at least a mens XL. But I'm proud of myself nonetheless. Thank you for the tutorial!

[@jessicamorrison5731]

Right as she was about to show the finished result an ad popped up! Love your videos😘

[@jb6712]

Oh, boy, what you could have done with my father's wonderful plaid flannel shirts! Dad loved red plaids of every kind, though he had gorgeous blue ones and green ones, too. I can easily see that you could have made an entire winter wardrobe of cute dresses for yourself!

[@chloemorrison2343]

I just found your channel and love it!! Your personality is so sweet!

[@PaperStxrs]

Aww thank you so much!!🥺

[@relireeeels317]

[@ximenadibanhi]

wow i was looking for something like this

[@nittanybiggs9538]

I've always wanted to make a Pinafore thank you for this tutorial it's so easy to understand!

[@rebeldreamer01]

Very cute, original design! Can you do a video on threading sergers, showing how you thread your serger? I have a used one, and can’t figure it out!

[@avrilklann6847]

I RELATE SO HARD WITH THE OVERLOCKER CONSTANTLY HAVING A TANTRUM!! Pretty much every time I sew I have to rethread it

[@MaidAlli]

Get yourself some fleece lined tights and go 60s mod with it! that's what i do when i want to wear my pinafore's in fall/winter

[@kmalloryb4878]

In the Philippines, its always summer because of the hot weather lol so I guess this video is very perfect for a 15 year old like me to go and thrift my flannel top and make it as a pinafore. Thank you so much for the steps and tips!

[@beebedoe]

when you sewed the sleeves (the very first step) was that right sides or wrong sides facing?

[@koko137591]

🖐🏼🤗

[@gabrielaguevara1257]

That looked like a tick not a spider

[@halldoralarsen86]

LOL thought the video was skipping like a broken record when you were having a speaking "malfunction" in the beginning.

[@LunaCat503]
