I’m not crafty in general, but I did grow up sewing, and this week, I’ve been revisiting my skills with a project that required half a t-shirt.
I didn’t say it was a classy project.
So I had this half-a-shirt and had no idea what to do with it, because like I said, squirting mustard on my burger in the shape of a smiley face is usually about as crafty as I get. But I started cutting . . . and cutting . . . and cutting, and I ended up with this:
(see how I put on red lipstick for you?)
I don’t even like fringe, but I didn’t hate this! And the boys I work with actually complimented me on it, too! And they never notice anything I wear! And maybe they only noticed this because it was near my boobs, but still!
To make your own:
1) Cut off the bottom of a t-shirt straight across. I used about 8 inches of t-shirt, but you can make yours shorter or longer to suit your scarfing needs.
2) Lay the t-shirt flat so that it looks like an awful, awful tube top or miniskirt.
3) With a sharp pair of scissors, start cuttin’. I cut my strips about a half-inch wide and to a little more than halfway up, but you can see that I had plenty of uncut t-shirt left, so you may want to cut more.
4) Take terrible pictures of yourself in the bathroom and send them to me.
You’re weeeeeeeeeelcome.
