Re-purposing thrift store clothes.

If your child is an odd size like my daughter, who is a size 6 in waist and a size 8 in length, you probably have a hard time finding clothes that fit right, but I found a solution. I make my daughter custom khaki pants for her school uniform. I buy khaki pants in thrift stores for $1.50-$3.00 and repurpose them into perfectly fit uniform pants.

From ready -to-wear to a custom fit

Once my friend asked me to alter her dress, which she purchased online, I didn’t realize how unbalanced the dress was and how challenging it could be to fix it.

However, I liked the final product.
