Refashion: Sewing in a lace Collar


I had a lace collar on this particular shirt....I really liked wearing it but the material of the shirt was dingy. So I decided to remove the lace and sew it on another simple white shirt I had. You can follow this tutorial if you bought lace to add to your shirt....or if you stole the lace from another shirt...like me! ☺

1. remove the lace from the other shirt.
2. Lay the lace on the new shirt to see where you'll have it.
3. Use a pencil to mark where you need to cute. CAREFUL: when cutting the back part of the collar be careful to leave it wider or you'll have the lacejust sticking out....like mine. :P
4. Pin it in place.....SEW

5. Enjoy your new style!!

See how I styled it at Feminine Modesty.

  2. Great job! I saved something similar from an old shirt. Might have to try giving it new life!

    1. If you do it you should show it on your blog and tell me about it.
