Anthro-style on a budget

Both these tops are the design of my oldest daughter.
I just did the manual work like sewing and beading.
I wouldn't have had to do anything if I hadn't shown her the anthropology site but whose complaining.
I think she looks really sweet and the tops do too.

This one was made with a specially bought t-shirt that had long sleeves. Actually it was specially bought so I could cut it up to use for flowers on another top that was bought at the same time but we discovered that the cut off sleeves had heaps to spare so DD1 pulled out the doily basket and started to play around with designs.
Some are full size doilies and others are sections that have had their frayed edges sealed with fray stoppa.
The butterfly has been embellished with tiny cream beads.

This top is a sportsgirl top bought at a garage sale for $5.
The embellishments come from a bag of unfinished work I picked up at the oppy a number of months ago.
Again beading was done, this time in a colour to match the top with three seed beads place in the centre of each little flower and in a row around the large one.
