I have plenty of clothes in my cupboard. And I think for those who know me well, would hear me claim that I have nothing to wear. Always.
On a recent weekend, I had to attend my love’s brother’s battle of the bands performance.
I wanted something comfy, and I was (again) getting tired of the usual clothes that I have. I have to admit, I like to have fun dressing up too; the best part, it is such a fun to have a boyfriend that has a good taste in fashion, and with the amount of unwanted tee-shirts he has lying around, I nabbed one of it for a quick fashion surgery fix!
Finally, something fun to wear.
So, don’t be discouraged by oversized tee-shirts lying around; you can always revamp it. With a little embellishment, you might even able to create a decent Christmas or Birthday gift for your friends and family.
There are many ways to reconstruct a tee; this concept is NO-SEW, which can be done anytime and anywhere. All you need is:
A Pair of Sharp Scissors (Preferably Fabric Scissors)T-Shirt of your choiceHere’s my take on what I did with the tee:
 |
Please excuse the photo quality; shot it with my phone.
First, gauge where you want to snip |
 |
| Snip your sleeves; it can be both sides or one side, it is up to you |
 |
My preference; I snipped both sides and turned it into
a cap-sleeve like shirt |
 |
| I snipped the collar too for some room to droop one side |
 |
I snipped off the hem of the shirt, slanted a little to create
a midriff top that allows me to tie it up too |
 |
| Snip it in the middle for me to tie it up |
 |
| Moving on to the back, snip the middle part |
 |
| This is how it looks like after being cut |
 |
| Gather it until it looks like a ribbon (but not) |
 |
| With the extra fabric, cut two long pieces... |
 |
Like this! Just make sure it is not too thin, and not too thick.
Not too long or short either. |
 |
| Fold it in half... |
 |
| Tie it up in between the ribbon-like parts |
 |
Now you can pair it up with a dress
like mine! |
 |
| This is how the back looks like. |
And I happily wore it to my love's little brother's drum performance...
