I have such a thing for jeans that have been made into skirts. or corduroys that have been made into skirts... I suppose it's because I don't feel like I look good in jeans or corduroy pants but look better in skirts... best of both worlds for me. I've never made one myself, though. would love to try, even though I don't sew. I swear, worlds would open up to me if I could learn to make one of these... thrifting would be a completely different experience!

I also feel the exact same way about re-wiring lamps.
