Make Custom T-Shirts With Inexpensive Stencils!

Natalie, a home-schooling mom (and so much more!), wanted to make a back-to-school wardrobe for her kids — and make them just what they wanted! So with a “grundle” of dollar-store tees (like 20-30!), she broke out the freezer paper, her Silhouette (you could use a hobby knife), and the fabric paint … to make these super cool and super custom tees! Learn how you can do it too!

An Alternative to Screenprinting

I don’t know about you, but I could dig quite a few t-shirts out of my giveaway pile – I have a lot of clothing that needs a new life! Carly did just that with her ice cream face t-shirt, and instead of using screenprinting she tried her hand at appliques. I love what she came up with – an ice cream fact perfect for kids, or the whimsical adult (like myself). Visit her to see how she did it. The process is much easier than you think!

How to Cover Stains on a T-Shirt

I am guilty of being one of those persons who gets stains on their t-shirts. I’m kind of a piggie! But I love my t-shirts, and I have my favorites like everyone else, so I definitely don’t want to throw them away. This great idea shows you that you don’t have to – you can simply refashion using parts of other old t-shirts and strips of fabric! With a little sewing and ingenuity, you can have awesome t-shirts for nothing. Visit the tutorial below.

Ruffle Top From T-Shirt

Sometimes wearing a plain t-shirt is . . . boring. I am a heavy t-shirt wearer, so I like when a regular t-shirt gets a little extra spicing up like what Meg did with her striped tee. She refashioned it by adding a tie and ruffles, and now it can go over a regular tee to make a very stylish outfit. What do you think?
