Bra recycling

I had this bra which didn't fit, but it had lovely lace details....


so I cut it up and saved the bits ...

 The straps, fastenings and underwires will eventually make another bra.  With the lacy bits, I decorated a corset...


The corset is especially made for the mannequin which came from Lucy.  I love how the bottom of the corset makes a pretty petal shape when fanned out like this ...


I have animal friends to help me!  A magnetised pin whale, and stork scissors..


I'm now inclined to look in charity shops for discarded bras with pretty lacy bits ...
