Bloomin T-shirt


I think that I may have created a monster. My daughter is wanting to wear some sort of new jewelry or shirt EVERY day. Last Sunday morning, she needed something to wear to church (besides the 1/2 dozen or so skirts I've either just sewn or re-done), She brought me this plain green t-shirt. We messed around with ribbon and came up w/ this. There's no tutorial. I sewed the white ribbon on w/ my machine. I didn't sew the "leaf" part, so it would stick out. Then I just kept folding and sewing on the blue ribbon to make flowers and top the daisy flower off w/ a button. The tulip looking flowers, I just folded to make look like tulips and then sewed them on by hand.


  It took less then 15 minutes. What do you think?  It even matches her room.

    I'm visiting your blog for the first time and thought "trophy wife"? This chick takes her self seriously!! I was happy to find that it seems to be just the opposite...I get a GREAT vibe from your blog and I'm sure you really are a trophy wife bc i'm sure your kids and your husband are happy to have you and all that you do for them!!

    I am lucky that my daughter is engrossed in playing a game right now because if she saw this she would want me to do it for her. (I'm sure I will anyway)! This is so cute. It is a great way to give some extra sparkle to an otherwise plain shirt! Thanks for sharing!

    You've really jazzed up a plain t-shirt, Tara! So easy, but looks so effective. If I was your daughter, I'd be bringing you all of my plain t-shirts... LOL!!!
