DIY $485 Bikini Swimsuit from Thrifted T-shirts

I love vintage and retro items and inspired items, so I was excited to see Angelina at BlueprintDIY post a video on recreating a 1940's style two piece swimsuit inspired by this $485 one by Joanna Ortiz.

She created her suit for around $10 using t-shirts.  

I am not at an age I would feel comfortable in a suit like this, it is very adorable with the ruffle on the sleeves  more modest with the brief type bottoms the come up to the waist and the ruffly little sleeve

I do love the top and I am also keeping this in mind when my granddaughter when she gets a little older.


What are your thoughts on this suit?
