How to turn a simple shirt into a festive one
The winter holidays are approaching, and every girl wants to prepare a fashionable outfit in advance. If you have a white office shirt or a classic blouse at home, it will become a perfect base for a festive garment.

All you need to turn it into a luxurious part of your costume is a couple of hours of free time and some decor that many crafters use. In this case, we will use white beads of different shapes and bugle beads.

Rhinestones, which are used for making handmade brooches and jewelry, will be a great addition.

## How to embroider a white shirt
- We will be working on the buttonholes on the sleeves and the front plackets. Before embroidering, consider the size of the buttons so that the beads and stones do not interfere with fastening.
- Step back about 1 mm from the buttonhole and start embroidering, sewing on elements of different sizes in a chaotic order. If you wish, you can choose a specific pattern. For decorating such a garment, you can use faux pearls - white on white looks very rich.

3. The size and shape of the embroidered element can be adjusted as you wish; in this case, we are creating a fairly large and noticeable decoration around each buttonhole.

Such trim mimics large buttons, which are difficult to use for a thin and delicate white blouse. You can complement the buttonhole decor with embroidery on the pocket or cuffs, which will turn an ordinary shirt into an elegant, festive outfit.






Very original! Every button really does start to look like a designer brooch (y)
But against this background, the regular collar looks a bit too casual. If it were remade into a short stand-up collar, it would be perfect for an evening out!
