I wanted a really fun sweater from Anthro to wear to Thanksgiving dinner, but I didn't want to spend a hundred and fifty bucks.
This was a problem.
Until I clicked over to my good friend Lizzy's blog and found a little inspiration.
I went to Target and bought this sweater for nine dollars. Yes, nine dollars. It was on sale.
Then I came home and cut up and old t-shirt.
I created little rosettes and ruffles and voilà!
Birdie liked it so much she barfed all over it, but not until I gathered up all the compliments on how cute it is.
I love it when I am able to save money by being creative. It makes me feel like a real pioneer woman.
A well dressed pioneer woman.

That's gorgeous. I'm so impressed by the Meronafication of an Anthropologie look.
That is a truly amazing piece of work. I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!! Very inspiring. I've got to take to some more of my clothes with the scissors. Hmmmm...
I always get feeling creative when I shop at Anthropologie. But then I try it at home. It was always better in my head.
Wow, that is incredible! I want to do something like that but I know I would be truly disappointed at the result. Is everything you touch that cool.... I am thinking yes.
