Hand-Beaded Upcycled Tank Top: Watermelon on Maroon

Brighten up your summer wardrobe with this juicy watermelon tank top! This top has been upcycled—formerly destined for the landfill, it’s now a one-of-a-kind piece, customized with hand-beaded embroidery. 

The top is a full-length tank top sized Medium from Madewell, and is made of 95% cotton and 5% spandex. The top measures 13.5 inches wide at the bust, and 11 inches long under the armpit. 

Washing Instructions: Hand-washing this item in cold water is preferred, but machine wash cold on the gentle cycle is okay too. Hang to dry. Warm iron as needed, avoiding the embroidery.

A note on upcycling: As we all know, the impact of clothing production and fast fashion is detrimental on people and the planet. With about 16 million tons of textile waste from the USA ALONE each year (EPA), buying thrifted or upcycled is a great way for you to receive a unique piece and make a positive impact as a consumer!
