Baptismal Dress Repurpose

This was my youngest daughter's baptismal dress. It was a gift from my sister-in-law. My LO used it only once and it has been stuck inside the dresser for quite some time.

A few months after a sudden loss of a relative required us to wear all white in a funeral. So I was looking for ways to save money, since I don't like buying dresses that will be only used once. I found this dress inside the dresser and thought of refashioning it a bit.

So here is how it looks like after cutting the collar and the organza  skirt. Simpler, isn't it? Not bad, since she will only use it once.
