Speaking of Pockets

2.12 2010

before – sans pockets

after – with pockets, yeah!

I found this awesome amazing stupendous glorious tutorial on how to put pockets in a dress you already own…or a skirt. Ladies, seriously hold the front door, this is a GAME.CHANGER. Can we just fantasize for a moment all of the wonderful thrifted dresses or dresses in general that you can justify buying because look (!) you can put pockets in them.

Thanks for that.
