I have timestamps to each DIY garden project included in the intro to the video.My dress was originally from a brand called Closet London, I used to love their dresses but I haven’t found any recently that catch my eye. I wanted to give my dress a new lease on life and enjoy it once again. I attempted an elastic waist skirt. You can see in the video how I made the skirt. This is one of the easiest ways to make a skirt. Just take your time when measuring and you can’t go wrong. I scrubbed down the doors with Krud Kutter degreaser to remove any residue from the kitchen. I also removed any hardware to get a tidy finish. You would be surprised how greasy cabinets can get from the cooker. I then applied one coat of Colourtrend prime 2. I had a big tin of this leftover from previous projects.

Once I wrapped the wool around the cardboard I then tightly wrapped a piece of string around the middle. Begin by measuring your notebook. Trace the measurements out on your fabric and add extra material for a seam allowance.

For example, if using Colourtrend or Farrow and Ball, I recommend using their primer ranges to get the best adhesion.
