Make a Cotton Jersey Robe from a Bedsheet

This post is an advertisement  by Cotton.

There’s an ongoing debate about robes in this house. Me? I’m a robe aficionado. Andrew? Not so much. But we all know the one golden rule of marriage: Happy Wife. Happy Life. Which means I get to lounge around in my robes. Period. End of discussion. I do have a few requirements though:

  1. Must be super cozy.
  2. Must be oversized so I can wrap it around me like a blanket.
  3. Must be lightweight. When you live in Miami, there’s more than enough heat to go around without creating your own.

Now, when a robe lover like me finds out I can DIY my own cozy little cocoon from a cotton jersey sheet – welp, that’s exactly what I do. Here’s the rundown so you can craft your own:

You’ll need:

  • A 100% Cotton Jersey Queen Sized Bed Sheet
  • A sewing machine
  • Scissors
  • Wide ribbon to use as a belt
  • Iron on saying (optional)
