Description
This was my first big refashioning project. I picked up a large shapeless smock in a thrift store in San Francisco, and refashioned it into a sundress. I also added crochet doilies to the shoulders for an interesting vintage effect. For more details about the process, see my blog post: http://teafortwodiary.blogspot.co.uk/2013/06/refashion-supersized-smock-to-summer.html.

The crocheted doilies are definitely my favorite detail of this. Very charming.
