The Goodwill gods smiled upon me this week. I love vintage, but I love even more to embellish and update a vintage garment and give it a new life. Here's what I've been working on.

| Tiny dots dress with ribbon brooch and belt |

| Ruched cap sleeve chiffon "bird" dress |
The sleeves were chopped off to create a more modern silhouette. I ruched them to make them a bit more interesting.
A handmade cotton dress with very pretty embroidery. It needed a little boost, so I added a bright blue tie to the waist and pink rick rack to the bust and pockets.
I have so much more to show you! Alas, today has been hectic, but soon you'll see more upcycled clothing and accessories - slip dresses, tea stained goodness, obi belts, sashes, clutches, even a little jacket! Oh, and a few OOAK birdcage veils made from all vintage materials (so yummy...)
o i love that red cap sleeved dress! great find! xoxo jillian:: cornflake dreams
