Look what I made yesterday!!

Awesome, huh?  Anthro wanted me to pay at least $50 for it.  They clearly have never met me.  Otherwise they would know how ridiculous that is.
Instead, I took a blue and white striped tshirt (purchased for $5 at the Gap 3 years ag0) that I hadn't worn in about 1.5 years.  I cut the sleeves off, sewed them on the front of the shirt, and viola!!  So cute.
Next, I think I'm going to make this one:  

Except I'm going to use a royal blue long sleeved tshirt with some navy blue ribbon that I have from a skirt I bought 5 years ago that really looks much better without the ribbon.  (You're going to have to trust me on this one.)
Before you know it, I'm going to have a whole new wardrobe without buying a thing!!  (Besides a sewing machine, that is....  Thanks, mom!)
