I usually only think of Labor Day as one of the bookends of summer. It’s not a day that garners as much attention as more popular holidays, but there is still fun to be had aside from barbeques and final trips to the beach! Try using the day as a chance to celebrate different occupations! Here are 5 fun options for dress-up clothes along with tutorials to show you how to make them yourself!
