Old Mens T-shirt Sewn Into Women's Dolman Tee

Old Mens T-shirt Sewn Into Women's Dolman Tee
My husband and I are runners so we have a million t-shirts. I love transforming these boxy, oversized tees into something I will actually want to wear other then for a nightgown. I love this heather grey and wanted to make it into my favorite style tee. I love the comfortable, effortless style of the dolman tee... It took me about 15 minutes or so. Supplies: DIY intructions: Full Video go here (it's old though). Begin by removing the collar of the shirt, pull to create an off the shoulder look. Mark your 1/2 your hip measurement inside the t-shirt so it's even. Pleat about 4 inches up by folding accordion folds and pinning through front and back. Mark your arm hole measurement and pin from the under arm seam to that measurement. When you sew, start at the bottom hem and sew up to the under arm seam in a gradual line. Cut all the excess interior fabric away or serge the interior. Related:  Femme

How To Layer Clothing and Look Fashionable There are many ways to layer clothing; some of them are great ways of making your outfit different and personal and some of them can make you look messy and bulky. The color and fabric are some of the main points to consider when layering clothing. Avoid using too many layers – 3 things on top is enough. You risk looking bulky if you overdo it. When it comes to the colors, neutral colors are very good for layering as they have low saturation and are therefore not bright and intense, which gives you a harmonious layering look, while pure, brilliant colors will become central making the softer colors fade.

Leather Hair Clips DIY - Whimseybox DIY Craft Kits, Craft Supplies, Online Craft Supplies, Monthly Craft Subscription Box, Craft Projects - Whimseybox This DIY was inspired by the metal feather barrette I found on The Fancy this week. It was also inspired by the price tag – $150. Ouch! The DIY version is made out of gold leather, one of my favorite materials lately. Start with a scrap of leather at least 6” by 2” and a pair of scissors. I sketched a rough feather shape on the back of the leather and then cut it out. After I had the general shape cut out I drew in some random feather details. And then cut the details with small snips all around the feather shape. Once the feather shape is cut out you might notice a problem – the leather has no body and just wilts over like a sad week-old flower. Wax! Use a brush to spread the wax on the back of the leather. Here’s how it looks when you’re finished. And this is how it looks from the front. Here’s the finished product.

RECICLAGEM DE ROUPA Neste espaço vou abordar a reciclagem de roupa. Actualmente é muito mais do que uma necessidade, hoje ela tem que ser encarada como um caso de sustentabilidade e preservação dos recursos naturais. Os recursos do planeta começam a escassear e por uma questão de solidariedade para com as gerações futuras temos que nos consciencializar que o reaproveitamento tem que fazer parte do nosso dia-a-dia. Claro que a reutilização não passa só pela roupa mas também. Aquilo que em principio começa como um passa tempo (hobby) pode muito bem passar a ser uma forma de negocio.

Petits Patrons Gratis Voici mon premier pull réalisé au tricot : Matériels utilisés : - Aiguilles n° 5 pour les côtes 1x1 et aiguilles n°5,5 pour l'ensemble. - 5,5 pelotes Schoeller Stahl, Elfin, coloris n°0001, 140 m / 50 g, 90% d'acrylique et 10% de mohair. Un peu de Technique.. Il s'agit d'un pull tube. Après avoir mesuré plusieurs pulls du commerce, j'ai défini les mensurations (en noires sur le schéma) qui convenaient. J'ai réalisé un échantillon en jersey (le point principal de ce pull, plus précisément l'envers) et j'ai compté le nombre de rangs et de mailles sur 10 cm. Une fois le nombre de mailles et de rangs par cm connus, il suffit de convertir les mensurations finales du pull (Ex : 60 cm (longueur dos et devant) x 2 rangs / cm = 120 rgs). Pour finir, le rendu est sympa et il ne gratte pas.

Jabón casero líquido para lavadoras - Zona Manualidades Hay muchas maneras de hacer el jabón tradicional para lavar ropa líquido, hay personas que lo hacen rallando pastillas de jabón ya hecho y curado y añadiéndole agua, también hay quien no lo bate sino que echan los ingredientes en una garrafa y ahí lo van agitando y mezclando, también se puede hacer con potasa en vez de con sosa ya que la potasa gelifica en vez de solidificar como la sosa, yo por el momento la mayor cantidad de veces lo he hecho como os cuento a continuación. Lo primero las medidas de seguridad siempre, debeis usar gafas grandes de protección, delantal, mascarilla (cuando mezcleis la sosa y el agua) y guantes. Necesitaremos: Un litro de aceite usado. 200 grms de sosa caústica *Para saponificar esta grasa con 145 grms de sosa hay bastante, pero como luego añadiremos mucha agua el efecto limpiador del jabón reduce, esto con jabones corporales no se debe hacer nunca ya que sería perjudicial para nuestra piel, se tiene que mirar siempre el indice de saponificación.

DIY RECY OUTFIT / CrazyArt / SAShE.sk Andrea M. » Inšpirácie z internetu / Pred 6 rokmi / 1 komentár / 28 lajkov / 280x zobrazený A som tu opäť s DIY návodmi a vylepšeniami pre nás hendmejďáčky. Dlhšia odmlka, no o to väčšia chuť opäť pridávať. Chystajú sa aj vlastné DIY články, no kým vyvoláme fotky, inšpirujme sa z internetu :) Plné skrine starého oblečenia a my stále dokola kupujeme nové. Alebo sa dá využiť recykláciou na výrobu nového! Načo vyhadzovať šušulky za drahé handry, keď si môžeme šatník oživiť napríklad aj takto: Zo starého trička s hlbokým výstrihom si bez zbytočného prešívania a strihania takto rýchlo a jednoducho poskladáme, obmotáme novú minisukienku. Pre obľúbenkyne nožníc a strihania je tu tričko prestrihané na moderné tielko, alebo big XXXXXXL tričko pretvorené na romantické letné šatočky, či minisukňu na traky. Mojím favoritom sa stali tmavé tričko-šaty zdobené výraznými ružičkami. Ako čerešničku na torte som si vychutnala prerábku neforemných žabiek na úplné nové sandále skvostného dizajnu. Vaša DEYA
