T-Shirt Alteration

DISCLAIMER: It is after midnight, I am wearing ZERO make-up, and I finished my workout about an hour ago and I haven't showered yet. These pics are NOT good. AND I was too tired and rushed to take good pics. They are grainy.

I have a t-shirt that I LOVE but with my weight loss it looks H U G E and I don't think I'll be able to wear it again. I couldn't let that happen so I searched online for a way to re-purpose or upcycle a shirt. I found a few sites that had great ideas and after putting a few of them together I came up with my plan.

First... the shirt:

The plan:

1. I cut off the sleeves first making sure I was on the sleeve side of the seam between the sleeve and the body of the shirt. 

2.I cut up the sides of the shirt along the seams.

3. I laid the shirt flat and folded it in half length-wise matching up the sides.

3. I cut slit in the shirt (4 layers) to be tied later.

4. I tied the slits.

5. I took one of the sleeve pieces and cut it in half- length wise.

6. I tied the strip from the cut sleeve around the top of each shoulder.

These might be confusing directions so just look at the pics. I need to get to bed and don't feel like going back to make it clear. :)

Do you own shirts that are too big??? Don't let them go to waste. Get cutting!!! NO SEWING REQUIRED. :)
