Upcycled costumes ! Next week we are going to celebrate #carnival, so before our Italian trip I managed some time to sew two easy costumes for the girls.

Upcycled wizard of oz costumes

The theme I chose was the wizard of oz, because I had faux fur and a Blu gingham dress to upcycle. I thrifted a pair of red velvet shoes for Mrs M. too!


?First of all, I used one maternity dress that I refashioned to make a Dorothy dress for Ms M.

?For the little lion I used a sunbonnet pattern,and recycled the faux fur of a hood that I don’t use anymore. Then I just added the lion’s ears. It’s fun because the lion it’s her favorite animal at the moment ? so that makes a cute memory too!

?And about the dress, I like the fact that you can switch to a “Belle” costume if you add an apron and a book,just change the hairdo and you have it?
what do you think about it?
