I love my craft blogs. Every morning I grab my coffee and sit down my lovely macbook and go through all of the craft blogs I follow. I've noticed a trend lately among them, Anthropologie and JCrew refashions. Two of my very favorite stores that I can't afford to buy anything from. But oh how I love to torture myself by browsing through their beautiful selections of clothing, especially at Anthropologie. Drool with me...
These are a few of the tops I found during my latest torture session. I've been so inspired by all of the other refashions I've seen lately, I decided what the heck...I can do that! So I headed to our local thrift store and Joanne's to pick up what I needed to get started. I found a knit top for $4 and some trimmings for about the same. I forgot to take a picture before I went at the shirt with scissors. But here is what it looked like after the scissors:~)
And here is the finished product. I used another tank top of mine to decide where the sleeves and neck openings needed to be. I used the sleeves to make the drape in the front and the turtle neck to make the rose. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.
