Description 


Instructions 
  1. 1
    Step 1

    Grab a tee (this is a good way to use a tee with an ugly print). Cut a big wide v-neck to get rid of that print. Resize if necessary.


  2. 2
    Step 2

    Cut a strip from another tee about 1" wide and as long as the edge of your neckline. Fold it in half lengthwise.


  3. 3
    Step 3

    Sew it onto your neckline with right sides facing. Pull the strip slightly and feed the tee in, to get a slightly gathered effect.


  4. 4
    Step 4

    To make ties, cut thin (about 1/2cm strips) from another tee and give them a tug; make three of different lengths. Make a strap for the bottom too if you like.


  5. 5
    Step 5

    Sew all of these on, adding buttons and other embellishments as you see fit. Wear over a cami top.
