Custom Favorite Tee Shirt

Hi Lovelies...

So I told you before that I was going to share the custom order I made, but I wanted to wait until she got it so I didnt spoil anything for her. Well, she got it, and loves it! So I can share with you now!!!

{Thank you so much Nikki!!!}

She sent me a box with this old tee shirt from a trip to the coast, and random other garments to cut up and use throughout the piece. It was a fun challenge and I love how it turned out. It turned an otherwise ordinary over sized tee shirt into a one of a kind fun girly shirt. And now she can proudly say she has something special of 'her own', since it was made from her own stash.

I also wanted to note for those of you that think Violet Bella clothing is just for the teeny tiny girls, not so, this was a size large, its hard to tell with it hanging on the mannequin, but it was!




Here are a few of my personal shirts to show you how different each one can be...
this purple shirt was one of my mom's over sized frilly shirts that she loved. I always loved it and wished I could wear it but there was just no way, it was too big and lanky. So this was my solution. I used some of her favorite pearl buttons on it.

This is a shirt I made for my bestie Shelley from one of her husbands old tees and other random garments of hers.
This is my favorite. I didnt show the best part, the front, but if you browse my blog you will find it!
You can find the spot to purchase one of these babies here...

PEACE,
Laura
