Crafting Along

I <3 hippie skirts!

Long, flowy, breezy, hippie skirts.

However, as a mama of two little ones, I find it hard to wear them.

They constantly get pulled down, or hiked up, or used as a tent for a small child.

Too much hassle, for everyday wear.

I needed a way to make them stay where they should.

 So I came up with this.

I chopped off the top tier of the skirt and sewed the bottom of the skirt to a pair of cut-off jeans.

I suppose what I now have could be called a hippie skort...

All the awesomeness of a skirt that I love, with the security of knowing I can stay modest that I need.

Can't wait till we have another nice day so I can wear it!
