Just Like That, I am Back

 If I said I was back, would you believe me? Blogging is complicated, and there are so many "get rich quick" blogging schemes that make it look like you are a lost cause if you are not currently earning money blogging. And why are you even blogging if you don't have multiple streams of income and entertainment. If you don't have a brand? I do have this website, but I do not have Instagram, Twitter, TikTok (you don't want to see me dance), or whatever is next.  Heck, I haven't even updated this since before the pandemic.

For those of you who are not familiar with Wardrobe Refashion here is the pledge.... The Pledge I __________________ pledge that I shall abstain from the purchase of "new" manufactured items of clothing, for the period of 2 / 4 / 6 months. I pledge that i shall refashion, renovate, recycle preloved items for myself with my own hands in fabric, yarn or other medium for the term of my contract. I pledge that I will share the love and post a photo of my refashioned, renovoted, recycled, crafted or created item of clothing on the Wardrobe Refashion blog, so that others may share the joy that thy thriftiness brings! Signed__________________. Feeling brave I signed up for it. Sure my sewing skills are limited, and I love to shop, but I think I can change, really I can change. So let's see how I do. It all starts on January 1st.  Are you going to take the pledge?

I bought this maternity dress for $7.00. I am not pregnant, but even at eleven months post partum and a lot of working out the post-baby body needs a little extra room. Okay so it probably needed a little extra room pre-baby too, but lets not talk about that ;). I am just figuring out how to refashion it. I was thinking of adding some ruffles, or rosettes made from the scarf, but I am not quite sure. Well This is the first official refasion for the blog so I will keep you posted on what I actually do decide to do.
