I haven't upcycled any outfits for a few weeks.
Here's my latest outfit....
It's a black knit dress made from my strapless 'Roxy' knit top.
Before...
Step 1 - I tied some elastic onto the drawstring and pulled the string out replacing it with the elastic.
Step 2 - Make ribbon belt.
I had a little accident yesterday. I fell up the stairs, only I could do something that stupid, Lol!!!
Anyway, I was running to go upstairs and my foot got caught in my dress, I missed the first step and bashed my chin on the hand rail. I thought 'that's going to leave a bruise', then I saw the blood! I'm a theatre nurse who doesn't like blood!!! My neck hyper extended and one side of my face went numb. When I got to hospital I was put in a neck brace. The xray's came back clear, no fractures.
They stitched up the 2cm laceration on my chin and I went home.
Today, my neck and jaw are really sore. I can't eat because it pulls on the stitches.
This morning I got a lovely surprise... my friend Teagen dropped off some treats and magazines.
I can still eat chocolate... it just melts in your mouth :D
Thanks Teags!
Love Nikki xx

Your site has inspired me to do my first ever upcycle! I just got my first ever sewing machine last week!
Oh my gosh, that sounds terrible. I hope you feel better soon! The black dress is so cute; great job. My daughter says I need to buy myself nicer clothes so I can upcycle them for her!
Bless your heart and bless your friend. Hope you feel better soon!
Nikki, so sorry you got hurt. Hope you are better soon. Ouch!
