DIY Shirt Revamp

/
3 Comments
I have this shirt I bought from F21 that I use to wear but clumsy me somehow spilt oil down the front of it.
After many [un]successful washes later, I finally realized I wasn't going to get that oil out of the shirt.
Now, at this point, most people would just throw away the shirt, but I have this problem with throwing away things. So instead of tossing the shirt, I decided to try and revamp it.
Here's my little How To:

Shirt REvamp
What You'll Need//
 Chalk out what you want to write or draw onto the shirt//
Place the cardboard in between the shirt to keep bleach from seeping through.
Trace over chalk with the paintbrush, dipped in the bleach water//
When done painting, allow to dry then wash with water to get rid of the chalk outline.
Done//
Quick & Easy Saturday morning project.

**The bleach tends to bleed a little so don't expect perfection. I'm excited to try this on a few more old shirts to master the concept and get some cool designs created from it.

    I'm terrible at DIY things, but I just bookmarked this one yesterday. It looks super cool. Maybe we can have a craft day and try it out together! I'll need your guidance. LOL :)
