Now I have another up cycled project to show you. Which would be great for those kids who needs a back to school shirt!
I found this t shirt for $5.00 at Target (pronounced Targhay for those of you who like the french pronunciation.)
It was a little plain and needed something to give it some wow!
I had some white cotton scraps of fabric (actually it was the bottom of a dust ruffle that I no longer needed.)
I made some rolled flowers of different sizes.
I then attached them with a needle and thread, I found this was the easiest and would withstand washing better.
I then started with the largest flower in the middle and graduated sizes to the top.
It made the neckline say wow! and I loved how it turned out.
I combined it with a cute jacket that believe it or not I found at one of my favorite stores.
(remember Divine Inspirations, yup, that's where I got it!)
Added a belt to the waist and I am thinking a cute pink flower on the lapel would perfectly finish this outfit! What do you think? Total for the outfit including the jacket $10.00!!

Wow that is totally cute! I love it:) I love the tone-on-tone refashions.
Oooh Donene, I love this! I'm going to have to make another one now! I like how you put the flowers all along the neck line! Beautiful!
How cute is this.... I love the top and jacket together. Just beautiful.
Hi Donene,
Love what you did to that t-shirt girl, it looks
fabulous off and on you!!
What a great idea, and just so cute. I love t's
with pretty stuff at the neck line cause it just dresses them up so.
hope you are having a great day,
blessings, Nellie
Love the upcycled shirt and the whole outfit for $10.00 great.

Oh My! It's darling. I want to try this project, but I still have an aversion to my sewing machine.

I did all the entries except the Facebook one (sorry, I don't have a FB account), so I guess that gives me a total of 4 entries. Thanks for the chance to win! My pick will be that adorable sun hat. It's the cutest sun hat I've ever seen!
I think I'm in love with those 'lil rolled flowers right now (as is the rest of blogland!). They are so figgin' cute! I think you did a great job on the tshirt by the way and the jacket is awesome! Great find. Happy to be your newest follower.

Donene, you are one handy lady with needle and thread. Your t-shirt is so cute!

Super cute! I've seen a lot of these shirt redo's floating around in blog land. I'm going to try one, one day.
Love the tshirt and would love to find that jacket. Definitely in the refashioning mode.
What a beautiful shirt! Thanks for sharing this with Sister Sister Sunday! You have such fun ideas!
Love that shirt!!!
It came out so cute.
I absolutely LOVE this!!! Found you on the CSI Project and I'd love if you came and linked this up at Sew Woodsy!
looks really nice!
Such a pretty top! I like how you used a top that already had the gathers at the neckline... makes everything more dressy than your basic t-shirt.
Cute and wonderfully simple! I love it!
I would love if you came and linked this project to my clothes upcycling page. It has a long term linky, so your project would stay there for more than just the week of a usual linky. We have over 60 projects linked up now – some fantastic ideas – and this month I’m upcycling lots of clothes and trying to feature lots of the links too!
Do come and take a look!

ahhhh isn't it amazing how adding such a simply beautiful thing like rosettes can so alter a plain tee?
LOVE this upcylced shirt. I've yet to do this to any of my shirts; however, because of your project I've started pulling some shirts in my closet that I can repurpose and make into a cute new summer top! Thank you so much for linking up to Sew Woodsy last week. I just wanted to let you know that I featured your shirt today. Please make sure you grab a featured button and link up any new projects you've been working on!

Love this! I really need to try it. Cute jacket too.
