Re-purposing things!

So, I've really been into re-purposing things lately.

My husband's grandfather gave me two medium men's t-shirts that he couldn't wear, and neither could I. So, I browsed around on a few of the craft blogs that I follow, and came across this:

I thought it was an absolutely genius idea, so I set to work on it.

However, since my oldest daughter is almost 3, a medium shirt would only provide enough length for a pair of capris. It took me at most, 30 minutes from cut to finish.

Here is the only picture I have of her in them, it's a terrible cell phone picture:

I also re-purposed an old tank top into a cute baby's hat:
