It's like I told you, up-scaling really is a form of heroism. Think about it. We go out on a search and rescue mission, looking for pieces that deserve a second chance. We take them home, in essence, saving them. Recently, one such piece caught my eye, a plain rusty orange corduroy vest. I took it home and loved it up.
I found vintage lace and fashioned it into an accent bow. I enhanced the bow by centering a coppery button on it. Do you like it?
I took off the dull, ordinary buttons and replaced them all with the fun, coppery ones. I think they give rather a western look to it all.
The real party is happening on the back side! We also have been doing a search and rescue for vintage, maybe even antique doilies. Among our findings was a large one in great condition.
It fit perfectly AND it had a pretty coordinating peachy edging on it! I was so excited when I paired them together! It was as though I were a talented match-maker! Here, just take a look...

I like the snappy, fresh look now.
But wait!
There's more!

This vest is a size large and it is for sale now at Wyoming Rose Boutique!
Have a great day and remember to live creatively!

I love the cute buttons you added! Copper is so classy, and the vintage lace is just the right touch. (Stopping by from PJH Designs.) Well done!
I love the way you updated this plain vest. So pretty. I love the doily. Thanks so much for linking up at Transformed Tuesday. Hugs, Peggy
