It is now day 6 of the 21 day challenge (15 days to go!). So far I 've been having a lot of fun with the challenges and have picked up some really good ideas from fellow bloggers.
For today's challenge we were asked to think outside the box and wear something in an unconventional way. Wear a skirt as a dress or a shirt, a necklace as a bracelet, etc.
So I started thinking....I've seen these great ideas to make men's dress shirts into skirts. I've also had a shirt lying around that doesn't fit my husband and have been contemplating using it to make a skirt like this:

Now I'm off to actually go make this shirt into a skirt!
Have a good day!
