Being inspired and getting creative

I have been inspired by repurposing clothing, so this womens small thrifted shirt
plus this sale anthropologie napkin
became this.
Livvy picked out the buttons herself.
Looks pretty darn cute on this pretty darn cute girl it was made for.
Not to bad for someone pretending like they know how to sew.

You're way too creative Lindsay! Why hasn't some of that rubbed off on me? I had to give this idea to Candice because she just bought some of those napkins too. Darling!
