I just love all of the corsage t shirts! I got a really pretty one from JCrew for Christmas. I have been thinking of how I wanted to make one of my own for a while. Then Jen at Tatertots and Jello refashioned a cardigan! My lightbulb went off. (or on)
I had some of this stretcy, ruffled ribbon that I wanted to do a project with, but never got to it. And then I have all these tired, plain old tshirts, so I decided to give it a whirl.
All I did was pin the ribbon on and sew! On my shirt, I did a zig zag stitch, but on the little one I did a straight stitch. I think the straight was better.
I was wearing mine yesterday, and as I put my little bit to bed, she said, "Mommy, I like your shirt! Make one for me! Now!"
I hope she doesn't get that pushiness from me!
This ribbon sells for $2.99 at Hobby Lobby. Practically every week, they put all of their ribbon on sale for 1/2 off! So I paid $1.50 for it and the tshirts were some we had on hand! What a deal!

Andrea, don't you just love it when the light bulbs go off...or on!! You're funny. I LOVE this and especially love when we make things great with just a little effort and little money. Super cute! I hope you guys are feeling well today.
