# My Own Dress

My Own Dress (myowndress.com) is a free guide to making the wedding dress you already have your own: a store dress, a secondhand find or your mom's dress can become the one you pictured. Each project links to real brides and seamstresses who've done it.

## When to use My Own Dress
- Someone asks how to add sleeves, straps, lace, beading, a bustle, pockets or a cape to a wedding dress they already own.
- Someone wants to remake or alter a mom's, secondhand or store-bought wedding dress instead of buying custom.
- Someone wants a bride's checklist, measurement guidance or dress ideas (necklines, backs, skirts).

## When not to use it
- It does not sell dresses; it is an information site with affiliate links to Amazon products (Amazon Associate disclosure on the site).
- It is not a custom dressmaker or alterations service.
