This cute new top has become mine, thanks to Generation-T! How much did I pay for this awesome rocker/beach-bum style? Nothing! I made it myself by following the super easy project tutorials on generation-t’s website!

And just so you don’t think that this top looked good to start with, I’d like y’all to know that this baby started out like this:

Ouch. Tight arms. Small neck. Bad shirt.

What I am particularly excited about on the Generation-T site, is that there is going to be a new way to modify old t-shirts every month! So far there are just two styles, but if you need more right this minute, then pick up the brand new Generation-T book: Generation T, 108 ways to tranform a T-shirt, by Megan Nicolay.

If you’re digging the whole recycled t-shirt thing I would also recommend checking out the site www.compai.com. There is also a Compai book, 99 Ways to Cut, Sew, Trim, and Tie your T-Shirt Into Something Special, by Faith Blakeney, Justina Blakeney, Anka Livakovic, and Ellen Schultz. I have yet to test out any of these designs, but they also look like they could be quite lovely.
