DIY Skirt from a T-shirt

Hope everyone had a great Halloween! Way overdue on this post. It's been sitting here for quite some time even though my skirt is already done.


For this lil project, I'm using a worn t-shirt which doesn't really fit my shoulders. As there were words on the front, this will be a short mini skirt. I cut it across the chest, below the words. Then I hemmed the 'open' end. It looked pretty plain so I decided to add things to it. I searched through the drawer and tried matching it with ribbons, buttons and lace but in the end, I settled for these round plastics which were meant for tying a string around on envelopes or boxes. Sewed them on at random places on the front only. I left the top 1-2 inches empty in case I wanted to add those 'belt holders' or whatever you call them.

Well, for my first project, I think this is a pass lol It's a little too small though =/ That's why it creases. Also, the material isn't really thick so if I ever wear this, I'll have to be careful with what undies I wear.

The top of the shirt will most probably be turned into rags as I'm unable to think of something to do with it. It's too short to be a jacket or anything. Probably sew a chew toy for Putih?

  2. The top parts looks okay layered with other stuffs (based on the picture) but I'm sure how it would look in real life..XD Anyway, you're creative! I don't know any DIY..! I'm trying to restore a handbag though but I still don't hv any idea what to use for the handle..>_<
