If You Want Something, Do It Yourself- Lace Tee
When I saw this dress from Monique Lhuillier, I instantly fell for it. There's something I love about the unexpected placement of lace on this design. I had this plain purple tee at home and knew I could use the same kind of concept. If you want one too...here's how to do it yourself.
1. Supplies- Tee, lace, scissors, paper & fabric glue (ribbon is optional)
2. Make a template for lace design
3. Once your template is drawn, cut it out
4. Fold lace until you have four layers, place template on top
5. Cut out template so you have 4 triangles
6. Lay out lace on tee in the design you want
7. Dot each inside point with fabric glue,
this made it easier for me to keep lace in place while I glued down all the edges
8. Cut ribbon to length of the triangles outer edge, apply fabric glue to ribbon
9. Glue down ribbon to each lace triangle & wait to dry
Hope you all enjoyed this...if you have any question just let me know :)

Doesn't it look gorgeous outside? I'm so glad I took these photos yesterday because today it's been raining like crazy. I was woken up by thunder and lightning and my yard looks more like a lake. Yesterday the boyfriend and I spent our afternoon relaxing with a little day date to get ice cream. After this weekend I needed a day to relax. Friday and Saturday night were enough to get partying out of my system for awhile. I wanted to feel a bit flirty so I threw on ruffles, sequins, and tulle...yup that's my way of doing it.
