Nautical Top

I love charity shops, they sell anything for next to nothing and most of their things are still in great condition. I managed to find a plain but interesting Laura Ashley top, for just £2.00. Bargain!

Why I chose it is because it of the cute buttons on the side which I thought looked interesting. Anyway I took it home and started cracking on with it.

Firstly, I cut out a anchor shape with a heart on the top of it out of cardboard, then I drew around it onto felt which I was going to put onto my top.

After this, I stuck it onto my top using a very strong fabric glue, and then started sticking my sequins onto the anchor, which was a bit painstaking as it took a while, but worth it!

After that, I stuck some little gems onto the top and created a shape of an anchor, simple but effective! I didn't want to put too much on my top so I thought it would be good to add the finishing touch which was a little bow out of polka dot ribbon and put it onto the neck part of my top.

Anyway, here are some photos of the progress of my top and finished!
