After watching a video posted by Bubz, a youtube vlogger

I felt inspired to do some DIY and create my own cute bow top :)
Bought a £1 navy blue t-shirt from Primark and got snipping.
Using fabric scissors snip the neckline so it can be worn off the shoulder.
Using an old silk scarf, I made 2 bows. Took a bit of patience as they had to be adjusted.
Once I got the right size I sealed off the ends using my beautiful sewing (given to me with love by my gorgeous friend Sarah Williams from Deal :))
Then I cut some white cloth into long strips about 5.5" wide and turned them into bows.
I then placed them into position and sewed them onto the top.
Trim off any stray threads.
There you go!
What do you think? I was quite pleased with the end result. Quite proud because it's the first top I've ever made too. My bows are a little larger than that in the video and I used different bows because I wanted to use scrap material around the house rather than buy from a fabric shop. The total cost of this project was £1. Being Chinese and a student, this is a plus for me!!
That's it for now really. Erm....going back to Bible college in 6 days time to do Creative Arts Academy, a live-in course designed to build your Godly character and teach you what it means to live a lifestyle of worship. I'll be joined by 2 of my friends from the Year of Training course as well as some new people so am super excited!
Stay tuned.
再見!
