Granny Chic Week!

Screen shot 2011-07-14 at 11.27.00 PM.png


Yes...I'm VERY excited to announce next week will be my very own Granny Chic Week. Where I will refashion old lady clothing into something more trendy as well as sporting some in a granny chic way. I have been dying (pause).....dying to do this for forever now! SO DANG EXCITED!

I'm telling you guys this now because I was wondering if any of you want in on this challenge?! You don't have to do it for a week, just once and then send me the pictures. It can be something you refashioned from granny's closet or send me a granny chic outfit post! I would love to stick it up on my blog.
 cottonandcurls@gmail.com

So....you in?
If you are, you can slap this button onto an...outfit post, refashion post, or whatever as long as it is granny chic related this week! Or you can just stick it up on your blog for support sake. I want to do lots and lots more of these kind of things...so it would be nice to spread the word!

BY THE WAY...GIVEAWAY ENDS SOON! sign up!

    I can't wait to see what you come up with! If the weather is nice next week, I won't be doing any sewing but I do have a shirt that I redid and it ended up being one of my favorites!

    I'll give it a go. I do have a shirt of my grandma's (VERY 1976) that I've been wanting to redo. I'll see how it turns out. It might still end up more "granny" than "chic" but we'll see.

    I'm so excited you're hosting this. Such a great idea. I've been meaning to alter some (a couple bags) thifted dresses I found. But have since gotten pregnant and have to wait to get started. Getting ideas would be great!
