Create a cage dress from your old little black dress.
Do you have a little black dress in your closet that you haven't worn in years? I did! I decided to spice it up a little with a few pieces of ribbon and created this cage dress. Now it's perfect for a little garden party.

Step 1
Cut a piece of ribbon long enough to wrap around your head comfortably.
Step 2
Burn the ends of the ribbon and sew together. This will be your neckpiece.
Step 3
Pin the neckpiece in place. If you have a dress form this will be easier to pin. If not, try the dress on when pinning.
Step 4
Add some cross pieces of ribbon to the dress. Remember to burn the ends before pinning in place.
Step 5
Once you are happy, sew the ribbon in place.
