My Pinterest Inspired Project

I have been searching for some beach wear ideas for this summer and I found this cute top on Pinterest. There were no instructions, just the picture, but is wasn’t hard to figure out.

Here is a tutorial for my version of the fringed tank top:

I bought a black tank top that was a few sizes bigger so that it would be longer on me and loose fitting.

I measured how long I wanted the fringe to be, then I folded that much over and started to make cuts up to the fold.

Then I filled a bowl with pure bleach and dipped the fringed end into the bleach.

I rinsed the top well and then put it in the dryer. I think this will be perfect over my bathing suit.

And who knows, I just might wear it with some cut off jean shorts too!

    Oh my this is so cool. I saw it on another craft link up and the tan looked like leather. Very cool! What a great tutorial! We would LOVE for you to stop over and link this post up and any others in our Crafty Showcase. Our showcase runs from Sat-Thur and then on Friday our designers pick their favorite to be featured.

    Stop on over and share! We even have a linky for ETSY and Crafty Businesses. http://bowdabrablog.com/2012/06/09/saturday-showcase-craft-projects-5/#

    Thanks, Susie @Bowdabra

    This is too cute, I love crazy shirts like this, I guess it comes from being a teenager in the 70’s:) I just may try to do this also because I know I would love wearing it. Thank you for sharing at Freedom Fridays. Hope your weekend is super terrific!
