DIY Elastic Repair and Adding Sleeves - mending and altering thrift store finds

I love how frothy this dress was when I found it at the thrift store, but the elastic was dead and I like having sleeves more than sleeveless dresses. Lucky for me the elastic was super easy to change and I had a sleeve pattern that I liked and knew might work.

Changing the sleeves is a little advanced! Tackle​ it if you feel confident OR are not going to be heartbroken if it doesn't work.

The pattern I used for the sleeve was Vogue 7770, which is an awesome dress to sew if you're interested.

Let me know how you figure out your elastic measurements when making things in the comments below!
