Dorian from busily spinning momma created this amazing t-shirt refashion tutorial that I knew I had to try as soon as I saw it.

Without further ado, let me introduce you to my Ruffles & Buttons Tee

Can you believe it all started with just a simple Long Sleeve Shirt?  Earlier in the day I went to the Salvation Army and found this new long sleeve shirt that still had the tags on it for only $2.  Perfect!

Dorian’s tutorial is very well done with lots of pictures and very easy to follow.  In fact, I finished mine while watching the Second Harry Potter and was finished well before the movie was over!

Here are some more shots of my version.
