DIY: Fringe Shirt

Summer is HERE!!!

...which means fringe shirts are IN again!!!

Fringe Shirts are fashionable and comfortable at the same time. They're a must-have this summer. Do you want to have one? But you don't have extra cash to buy them? Why not make your own?


Here's an easy tutorial:


I made my fringe shirt from an old white shirt. It's an original design of mine and it's cute and super easy to make. I just spent 3 pesos for this new piece, isn't it great?! A cool way to upcycle your old shirts this season.

What you will need:
an old tee (preferably light colored)
scissors
dyes (I bought a pack of Venus Fast Dye in orange which costs 3php)

How To:





One: Cut out a semi-circle on the bottom part of the shirt. 

You can try a different design if you want.


Two: Cut out vertical lines about half to one inch thick.

You can cut it thinly, just make sure you can still fringe it.


Three: Pull the lines down. Fringe 'em!


Four: Knot them.



A closer look on my knotted ends.


Five: Dye, rinse and let it dry.

Follow the instructions on the pack.
I decided to dye my shirt halfway only so it looks more cute..



And that's it! Perfect outfit for the beach.




haha!

happy summer!
