FUN FIND FRIDAY - stained t-shirt to cute shrug

Last summer I saw a post on one of my favorite craft blogs, Make It and Love It, about repurposing a stained t-shirt into a cute shrug. To see the original post, go here. Her little shrug turned out adorable!

I knew I would make one someday but that post was buried in my "craft to do" folder until I cleaned out my daughter's closet this week. I loved my daughter's hooded Old Navy top until it was covered in stains. I'm so glad I didn't throw this out...it was perfect for this project!


I didn't have enough fabric from the shirt leftover after I cut away the stains to make a big ruffle like the original but I think ours still turned out cute. Thanks for the inspiration Make It and Love It! I took my final picture with the shrug hanging over a tank because it just looked silly up there by itself!

My daughter was happy with her "new" shirt too! She had fun modeling it for me!
