Thank you Jess for giving me the opportunity (again) to be a part of this great blog hop.

I love Vintage !!! I wanted to make something that will last and that wouldn't get put away in a drawer or lost on a shelf. So, I decided to make an altered Tank Top. It was sooooooo much fun.

• Wash and dry the Tank Top
• "AGE" your Tank Top, by coloring it with COFFEE !!!
• In a big pot, mix water, a cup or two left over coffee (preferably strong), a tablespoon of salt.
• Add the Tank Top to the mixture
• Heat to a boil
• lightly hand wash, rinse and dry
• Gather and sew a strip of lace to the armholes on the Tank Top

• Cut out a template of a heart.
• Cut out a heart using the template and sew to the Tank Top. 

• Sew a crocheted doily to the heart

• Gather all the pieces of lace and ribbon from your stash, and start sewing them onto the heart.

• I embellished the heart with flat back Swarovski crystals, flowers and pearls

                                     

• Completed front view:
