Believe it or not, the inspiration for this one came from a shirt I saw at Walmart. My sister recently gave me a shirt she wanted "up-cycled" into a workout shirt, so I thought I would give this style a go. It was so simple and turned out cute.
My version
Walmart version
Materials
- fabric scissors
- Step 2: Put the cardboard between the two sides of the shirt so you don't accidentally put a hole in the other side of your shirt (been there, done that.)
- Step 3: Use the fabric scissors to cut off the sleeves, then the collar. Pinch the fabric and make a small cut to cut out the inserts between straps.
- chalk
- cardboard
Steps
- Step 1: Lay out your t-shirt. Using the chalk, mark out where you want to cut. Try your best to make sure both sides are equal. I only went to about 1 inch away from the top seam on the strap so that the two straps stay together.
- Step 3: Use the fabric scissors to cut off the sleeves, then the collar. Pinch the fabric and make a small cut to cut out the inserts between straps.
Boom! I think this is the easiest one to date! The precision cutting did take some patience, but it was so simple! A perfect upcycled t-shirt that deserves 5 stars!
