Shirt/Blouse Art 2012 - 06

I was googling for a men's peasant shirt for a friend as a positive act of kindness...and I not only found a great link to purchasing one which you will see further down I discovered this great idea from a young woman who blogs about Cultivating Home!

I love it when people are creative and do really neat things....especially with clothing. It can be so practical. The romantic touch is what I'm finding here. It's so positive when people do inspiring things.

First:
This link is to the blogger who redid a men's shirt to make it into a really sweet woman's blouse.

She shows how to do it too on her Cultivating Home site in a sort of Tutorial. ...and she inspires others!


Second:
A really cool thing is that one of the comments linked to another person's site who made a little girl's blouse from a little boy's shirt!

Third: My successful search for a peasant shirt for a man resulted in this really cool link to the Tudor Shoppe:

I think this is quite romantic..but there were plenty of others up on the site. This kind of like the opposite of a men's to woman's shirt....more of a woman's peasant look for a man! I love it though. It is dashing and is reminiscent of the pirate look of adventure as well.


All in all a good topic for the day's positive art site!
