The Best Ugly Christmas Sweater Dress Refashion EVER

When a staffer at our local newspaper, The State contacted me and asked if I’d like to do an Ugly Christmas Sweater refashion for them to feature in their Life & Style section, I of course said yes.

What followed was some 40 or so emails where they wanted me to either make a tacky sweater normal or make a normal sweater tacky (How uninspired!) and me refusing to do that and instead insisting on making a ballgown out of a BUNCH of Christmas sweaters.

I’m very stubborn.  🙂

I don’t have a full tutorial of this refashion, but here are some behind-the scenes pics:

And here’s a video from The State where I explain my process (and yes, I know my voice is weird, okay?).  🙂

Everything got all nice & stitched together, and now….

BEHOLD!!!!!!!!!

Of course, I don’t just make dresses to not be seen!  My fahhhhhbulous new frock enjoyed an Ugly Christmas Sweater Bar Crawl with some of my favorite people!

And look what I saw first thing this morning!  🙂

Big Mondo Major thanks to The State for letting me play.  🙂  This is my absolute favorite project to date.  I’m really proud of it, and I hope you guys like it too.  🙂

Cheers!
