Thursday Threads- Making Good Luck

Every time I wear this shirt I seem to have bad luck, like really bad, where I get hurt.
I've only worn it twice.
The first time, I was at a restaurant, accidentally bumped my elbow, which caused me to black out, which resulted in a pretty bad concussion.
The second time I wore this shirt, I bumped my knee really hard on my easel, and started to black out again.. I managed to lay myself down where Brad found me, and thought I was dead.
I don't know why I go unconscious when I hit my elbow or knee... I assume it's the shirt..
But, I was brave, and put it back on..

I'm proud to say I made it through the day with no accidents.
And now I will turn it into a lucky shirt. 

The shirt is actually from the thrift store. It's a boy shirt, but I cut it, and made it ruffle a bit. I also added the crocheted tank sleeves.



Shirt- Thrift Store, upcycled.
Pants- Bullhead
Cardigan- Thrifted
Bracelet- OnceAgainSam
Boots- Forever Young
Necklace- Talk2thetrees

  10. Although I don't like that you've blacked out & hurt yourself, I find this story hilarious. Maybe it's the way you blamed the shirt. Which I love by the way. It turned out so cute!!
