DIY: How to make a Cut-out Croptop From a Plain T-shirt

12:54

Hey people!

T-shirts are very versatile and there are sooooo many things that can be done with them. I have so many ideas and execution & time is kinda the problem. Anyway, look forward to more t-shirt DIYs.

Today's DIY is really quite simple (as are all my DIYs so far). All you need to do is cut. That's right people. This is a no-sew DIY.


I'm not one for plain fitted t-shirts so I decided to transform this one.



You will need:

- A t-shirt

- Scissors

- Tape rule

- Crayon/ Chalk/ Some thing to mark the area being cut-out

Before we go on, please choose the material of the t-shirt carefully. Let it be one that once cut, will not fray. Otherwise, you'll need to hem it which is quite simple but hey, I'm physically conservative so...

Step 1



Draw any pattern at all you want. I went for a rectangle in the middle and two polygon-like figures on the side. Be careful while drawing to leave allowance for the cutting.

Step 2

Cut the shapes out. That's really all you need to do. and...

Done!

You could try out different fun shapes, you could even cut-out the back.

What cut out shapes would you be trying?

Let me know in the comments, I'd love to hear from you.

  10. This is really cool. I do this all the time. With an endless supply of tee shirts, I get bored easily so I try a lot of things with them. This one is nice too.
