The 30 Minute $6 Dress Tutorial. Guest post by Rachael at Talk 2 the Trees. The perfect dress is hard to come by. I like my dresses to be cheap, and long enough. (I’m not a fan of super short dresses!) Cheap and long dresses don’t seem to go hand in hand.. so, if you want something done right, you have to do it yourself!
Here is a tutorial for a simple yet cute dress. It takes about 30 minutes to make and costs much less than most dresses! Here’s Your Supplies List: 1. Here’s How you Make it: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. Here’s the tutorial in pictures… Believe it or not, this dress only took about 30 minutes to make. About the author. DIY: Banana Republic Braided Neck Tee Shirt. Coachella-Inspired Rock & Roll T-shirt Makeover. A few weeks ago, the Coachella Music Festival was here in California. Afterwards, I loved looking at photos of Coachella-goer fashion – they look so effortless and rock & roll! I have been meaning to post some new t-shirt makeovers and Coachella fashion is the perfect inspiration! This tutorial uses the same technique that was seen in my braided neck t-shirt makeover from a few months ago (fun fact, that is my most popular post ever and has been viewed almost twenty thousand times!).
This is a great example of how you can take one idea or technique and create an entirely new project. The end result is a complicated, lace-like look, but the process is super quick and simple. Cut off the neck and the bottom hem of your shirt – shape the neckline wider or lower if you want. Once you’re done cutting, grab the sides of your shirt to stretch the strips out. Now it’s time to weave! Now rock your shirt like you’re at Coachella! Tagged as: craft, diy, tutorial. Judah Method - Bleaching Experemnet on the Behance Network.

This project is perfect for first-timers, it’s straight forward and pretty forgiving for those who aren’t sewing aces just yet. Materials: FabricSafety pinsSewing machine Directions: 1. If you want the skirt to be high-waisted and knee-length, measure from the top of your waist where the skirt will sit to the bottom of where you want the skirt to hit, and then add 3 or 4 inches. 2. If you want a high-waisted skirt, use a measuring tape to find out how many inches around your waist is. 3. For this skirt, it’s best to choose something swingy and light as opposed to something stiff and heavy. 4. 5. The length should remain the same! 6. 7. If you put it on now, the length will be correct, but it will be entirely too big for you. 8.
Put one side of the dress on as though it fits. 9. Make sure you’ve pulled the side tight enough that it’s not going to come loose. 10. Watermark Tee by Sweet Verbana. Hello U-Create readers!
