Upcycling Scarf Into Chic Blouse DIY

"This beautiful project is very simple, perfect if you’re a beginner. Takes 2-4 hours, depending on your sewing skills and experience. I’m using one of my 44 inch x 44 inch scarfs. If your scarf is smaller you can use two in coordinating colors, or say with pattern for the front detail and a solid color scarf for the back detail. You can use any fabric you might have laying around or an old midi/maxi skirt."
