Hi! I'm a long time lurker, first time poster. There are tons of great ideas on this site, so thanks for all of the inspiration.
Here are some of my reconstructions, and my tie wristbands.

This black and white Gap shirt had a plain neckline when I found it at Goodwill, and I wish I could take credit for the cool stripe pattern, but it already had that when I got my hands on it. I gave it a low v-neck and added the little white bow. Simple, but I think it's really cute.




By the way, I washed the mirror just for this picture. That's how much I love you.

A plain, high-waisted tennis skirt becomes adorable with the addition of blue tulle along the bottom and a sleepy/sad little blue elephant felt applique to cover up the ugly logo on the bottom. I love this skirt but I desperately need money, so I think I'm going to put it up on ebay.

Lastly, I made these tie wristbands out of vintage ties and high quality snaps. They, along with a bunch more, are for sale on ebay but according to the rules I'm not allowed to tell you where.
