I Had my second Child Recently and was left with the maternity clothes and the post partum Fat clothes in my basement. I have been slowly going through them to see what i can do and i made my wat to the one thing i have so many of yet so little of. Let me clarify, I have many nursing bras that are almost like new and not many standard bras that are in the same decent condition. I decided to revamp the nursing bras.

This is a simple thing to do and requires little to no sewing experience but if you do not know how to make a simple stitch through two pieces of material than you might be in trouble.

But other than that here is what you will need"

Needle

thread

Nursing bra

nips of some sort to cut through plastic

Elastic (eyou might find this elastic from another bra, underwear or whatknot but you can buy some if you like spending money.  

start by knowing that i am working with one of those plastic latch bras the bottom part hooks onto the top and then snaps into position . (there are different kind of latches but i am pretty sure you can revamp those too. just use your noggin) 

I severed the bottom latch at the top of the cup of the bra making sure not to cut the fabric. Remove the plastic from that and toss.

(sorry for the pic. the autofocus does not work too well in dim light)

Then I removed the inner liner because we will not need that anymore But still save this because you might need it if it has something in it like elastic you can reuse

Using the same nips i then cut the latch nub ONLY from the top plastic piece that is connected to the strap. If there is some jagged parts then file them down with an emery board or something that can smooth the plastic.

Using the discarded inner piece of fabric i cut the elastic out to use to attatch the plastic back onto the strap. (sorry for the paint on my hands. WHat can i say?? i am a crafter!!)

Stitch the elastic in place

Loop through

Stitch on the end and cut the excess off and there is your new comfort bra!!
