Refashion: Hawaiian Shirt to Skirt

My brother was cleaning out his closet and this Hawaiian shirt caught my eye. I love yellow and this print is so summery. This is a 15min refashion. All you need is a men's shirt and a 2" elastic band.

Step One:
Remove any pockets from the shirt.

Step Two:
Cut the top portion of the shirt, right under the arms or whatever length you want your skirt to be. (Remember to allow 1/2" for the seam.)
Step Three:
Sew the elastic band to the top of the skirt. Pull the elastic band while sewing, so the skirt will gather and it'll expand when you put the skirt on.
Tada!


This dress from Target is $20. I only paid $.39/yrd for the elastic band.
