- How to Refashion Thrift Store Clothes to Vintage Style - Mens shirt with lace doily -Thrift to Vintage ep4
In this episode, I take a plain men's shirt and refashion it into a women's, sort of light jacket!
And I used a lace doily for the collar! Yes, a doily!

I absolutely love your Australian and combined English and American accent! Such a unique sound.
I made two dresses with collars from dresser scarves made of Bantenburg lace for my daughter when she was in college and Laura Ashley dresses were popular in the US. Everything that is old is new again.😊
Ok, so what do you think of the doily collar??
There are so many types to try that will give so many different looks!
Evelyn Wood absolutely love it! Now I have to try! I loved the dress you made on your stories
Yes, that one turned out fabulous!! Because I could make a facing to finish it with! I'll try again! xx
Oh yes, doilies! What a really innovative idea! How thoughtful of you. How do you come up with such uniqueness for your designs? Caribbean girl, again. You are such a delightful girl to listen to. Lol.
I think they are absolutely beautiful, you've got imagination,. So different, unusual and lovely, thankyou.☺
Oh so wonderful. It looks like a painter's smock---but one I'd never ever wear to paint in. :-)
I love using your pretty doily, genius.
🤔 Is there a vintage garment, fabric, tool,
embellishment, or alteration that you have not conquered and, even made sing???
Nope 😊. Thank you for sharing your skills and creativity, and making sewing so much fun 👌🪡🧵
A stunning dish with just a hint of ham. Good job !
You are so amazing. I love the way you make my mind race and think of new ways to create! And that gorgeous mauve dress is to die for!!
that pink dress in the background is an absolute dream!
40s vintage!!! Need repairs.... I'm getting to it!
You inspire me to sew and refashion.
So creative and inspiring. Definitely will try in future.
Makes me think of a fancy artists smock. Especially with the beret.
ME TOO!!! :) I actually thought about doing a silly little skit in front of an easel with paint brushes... but I don't have an easel... I am so happy that you got the same vibes from this! xx
Ha Ha! That's awesome. I'll just imagine the scene in my head! :)
I love vintage doilies! What a fabulous idea embellish a mans shirt. So romantic! I’m going to make one too.Thank you, Evelyn
Fantastic!! I hope you do, and if you do, you must tag me so I can see!!
love it! I think your going to hear those words from me often. I'm tickled pink finding you. I like to refashion clothes too. it fun to do.
Denise I will not tire of it! \So happy to hear you're a fellow refashioner!
That's a fantastic way to bring new life to two items that might otherwise have been dismissed. I'm trying to think of how I could work doilies into my upcoming projects now!
Fabulous Katie!!! I'm am sure that there are sooo many ways we could incorporate the humble doily into something nicer! I would love to see what you create with one yourself!
Ms E....that turned out so nice! I could see that, in the summer, over a t-shirt worn with jeans....so versatile! I believe you have another winner!
Absolutely lovely, Its a great piece for all seasons.
Thanks for watching Krystal!
Aww this is so cute I love your channel! I don’t know how to sew only a little but I think I will try this!!! Thank you! Would you do fashion on the things you wear!! I think I’ll be cute! Lot people are into vintage and it will be an inspiration!
Would make a lovely maternity jacket
Hi Evelyn, Really great idea you had there, me thinks I can do something similar. Yes I can cut/write both handed, ha ha. Thank you for sharing. XX
Anna that is talent!! Cut with both hands!! It feels awkward to even hold scissors in my left! xx
Wow, I found a wonderful channel tonight. I love the shirt and changes. Hooked on your channel already. I can’t wait to watch more. Now I’m going to be on a foiled hunt. Love your channel. Thanks so much. Janice
Thanks for watching Janice! I should have a new refashion very soon!
It's a good idea! I have tons of dollies
I loved this wee over jacket great job and you made it look so easy I would love to be able to do this but I am around plus size so not so easy to find clothes big enough to alter
Clever changes, Evelyn. I liked them. You said this took longer than expected, but I marvel at the volume of creations you make. I never seem to have enough time to get things done, but you just keep pumping out new ideas, new creations, new make-overs. Do you have an average productivity week? I'd be interested to know what I can aim for. Once again, lovely transformation and very cleverly done. Thanks for posting.
Hi Doro! Aww that's nice! I often feel very pulled between getting all the things I want to do done! I like to make these videos but I have much client sewing work to do, and then there's all the boring computer time... I think it all depends on what your schedule is like to how much sewing one can fit in!
I find most of these videos take longer than I think because how long I think it will take me, does not include all the time to film along the way!
Ahh, that makes sense. Evelyn, I'm wondering if you will ever offer an up cycling sewing course...? You have interested me in this aspect of sewing and I have the chance to take such a course but if you were ever going to offer one, I'd rather take it with you. Just wondering...?
Doro this is perfect timing!! I am working on something right at this very minute!! It is going out only to my email subscribers right now... but if you email at info@evelynwood.com.au them I will have YOUR email address and I can tell you all about this special invitation I have! The timing could not be more perfect and I would love to share it with you!
Very cute jacket. I especially like the lace at the wrists.
It's the small touches right!
Brilliant idea, I've got quite a few of them, doilies, I mean, you know the ones you put on the table. ;)
hahaha yes, I know those ones!!! I have some more in y stash waiting for refashioning!!!
I loved that idea, I think I will try it!
Love this! I am looking for some doiles to create this cute too! Thank you!
FAB!! I hope you find something nice! I have been collection more, just need time to make sit down and sew, for myself that is! Remember to tag me in anything you create!
And she has another winner! Love it!
+Sharon Hughes Thanks so much!
thanks for inspiring me
Love your inspiring tutorials. You are a phenomenal teacher. I would like to know about your dressmaking shears. Can you give me an idea of the cost and band?
Love it.
hi, is a very nice project that it turn so nice job
Wow! just love it! You are so talented~ Wish you could make me a shirt like this~
haha You can make one now yourself Ingrid!!
I am new to your channel. Love what you did to this shirt. I will be trying this for sure!
FABULOUS Linda!! It is a nifty idea that I cannot wait to try again! I hope yours turns out great!
Marvelous. I will try this. Thanks..
Wonderful thanks for watching June! Be sure to tag me in anything you m ake I would love to see your creation!
I was wondering how you were going to remove the collar, and you just cut it off. I like it !
I also wanted to see if you could cut left handed, because I thought if you could, you really are supernatural !
hahaha Tina that made my day! The video was getting very long and I thought about cutting that section of the video out, but I thought it was funny, and now I'm glad I left it in!
I’ll definitely try this.
Wow serioualy i cant do what u do lol u doll are very talented
+rina m thanks so much for watching!
Wow! I can make it too from hubby longsleeve😂
It’s given me some ideas thank you xx
Wonderful!! I'm glad to hear it! I hope you create something fabulous!!
So creative!
Thanks for watching Kendra!
I'll could watch you for hours.. I don't have the time to see at the moment.. it is one of my passions. My other passion is nostalgia.. I love to listen to 1930s music and my next thing is to make reproduction garments. So I will be watching you channel.. thanks truly enjoy ir
Aww Betty thanks! I also love 20s and 30s music, listen to some right now! I am so happy to hear that you are going to make vintage reproductions! Have fun creating and if I can help let me know!
Love your channel! Got to say though that doilies were hand made by 'young' women - for their 'bottom drawer'
But what is in their 'bottom drawer'???
It was a euphemism young women used for collecting, saving or making the smaller household items that you would need when you got married and were setting up your own household. Things like table covers, antimacassars, linen etc. Happy days! LOL!
Arrr, I thought this might be what it was! doilies are essential household items after all!
It looks just so wonderful!!! I will sure try it.... and your sissors ...they look so interesting... Can you show them closer, in Instagram for example? Thank you...
Thankyou Oxana! I hope you do try it! I would love to see what you create! My scissors are just fabric shears, I have bigger ones! I'll try and make a post for you this week!
Very creative!
Thanks Ana!
Perfect!
I love it
Hi i love your videos, and you are beautiful
love it
Thanks for watching!
I do like doily collars & think you did a good job as always, but men's business shirts still look like men's shirts to me, no matter what people do to them. Think I spent too many years working in offices, to get past that. Shame there aren't more men's shirts available in colourful fabrics or prints - that's be nice to see.
Yes, Joanne,I do agree with you! Having worn this one now, If I was to do it again I would have made the collar more into a v shape, and I would have narrowed the shoulders for this very reason! But I still like to work with them! xx
That sounds great. & yes I understand why, they're usually a good quality fabric & there's always a huge supply of them just begging to be transformed into something fabulous. I reckon it could be fun to make a bunch of them into a 1930's beach playsuit (rather than the usual style of playsuit that people tend to favour), naturally, I'd have to break out the Dylon first LOL :)
My little girls name is Evelyn! And I'm a seamstress too in Canada.
Thanks for watching!!
too cute.
Would you do some 1940s dresses 👗 please

😳 Old Lady doily!!!! I love doilies! I think they are fascinating to look at and make!! They are so artistic. It would have been more accurate to call them vintage or Victorian. Old lady indeed. 😠
💗🎊
front looks good the back i don"t care fore
This one looks too "tacked" together and it does not have a feel of ever being an actual item.
I don't like the acting, I think you need to talk more naturally
