Refashioning My Clothes

My baby is scheduled to be delivered on Wednesday, if I do not go before that! My husband, Lou, and I are so excited to be bringing our little baby boy home this time next weekend! I am not only ecstatic about being mommy to a precious little girl and sweet baby boy, but I am also very happy to be getting back into my old clothes and, again, expressing my personal style. I lost thirty-five pounds on Weight Watchers between pregnancies, so I have all of these too big for me clothes that I kept "just in case" I got pregnant again that I will be able to wear for the next few weeks. However, after that, I may be at a loss for fashion just like now. I have been looking around on some of my fave and newly discovered crafty blogs to see if I can find instructions on upcycling some of my larger clothing instead of having to shop for all new stuff. (This makes my budget-conscious husband very happy.) Anyway, I found quite a few. A lot of them have ruffles and flowers, but what can I say, I'm a girly-girl. So, here is a short list of some of the coolest and easiest refashioning tutorials for womens' clothing that I have seen.
