DIY "TURTLENECK" SLEEVELESS CROP TOP FROM T-SHIRT/OOTD

  You will need:

• T-shirt(I got mine from walmart, it's actually so soft you don't even know)
• Scissors
• Pins/Chalk for marking
• Sewing machine(You could probably use a needle and thread if you want

  1. Cut off the neckline and sleeves. If your neck is tight enough even when it's been cut then cutting off the sleeves is optional.

  2. Try the shirt on inside out and hold up the sleeves so that the neckline is as tight as it can be without not being able to get your head through. Mark on both sides with chalk or pin it instead.
  3. Sew it up! If you aren't sure if it will fit over your head just hand sew a temporary stitch to try it on and adjust it as needed. Cut off  the excess fabric.

  4. CROP THAT TOP.

  5. Measure your neckline and cut it out of your scrap t-shirt fabric (I made mine too big).
  6. Measure the length you want it and double that, you'll be folding it in half. I used the whole length so I could fold the turtleneck over again when it was sewn on, make it shorter if you don't want it to be like that.

   7. Sew along the side to make it a tube shape.

 

   8. Put the turtleneck inside the neckline right sides together(the side you want on the outside when it's done). Match up the seam of the turtleneck with one of the shoulder seams for a more professional look and sew.
   9. Turn it right side out and you're done! If you want it tight you can take it in on the sides or cut strips and tie them together to make fringes.

  Happy Easter Sunday!
  I'm at my grandparents house right now and my grandma sews so she helped me make this dress. It's made with some burned velvet fabric and it's a babydoll-ish shape. The fabric was difficult to use so it was good she helped me. (By the way yeah my socks are crazy, they were the only pair I brought for some reason and my legs are gross so sorry! Hahaha)

  I'm really bad at getting my picture taken, sorryyyyyy.

DIY CHAINED COLLAR/SWEATER CLIPS(pictures, written instructions and video)

  The things that inspired me for this tutorial are this tutorial by Annika from "the Pineneedle Collective" blog (really awesome blog by the way, and some of the best DIY's eveeeeerrrrrr) and this brooch from etsy. I mixed those two things together, added my own little twist and made this for you!
  I'm doing two little aliens but you could really do anything! There are a lot of needle felting tutorials online and it's actually pretty easy, you just have to be patient unless you enjoy stabbing yourself with a tiny, very sharp needle.
 What you'll need:

• Wool for needle felting(I used three different colours but you only need two)
• Felting needle
• Chain
• Pliers(maaaaaaayyybe it would be better if I used actual jewelry pliers, just maaayyybe)
• Two safety pins

   Take some felt and roll it into a ball. Now stab it all over! Hahaha, but do be careful not to mistake your fingers with the wool and get yourself because IT HURTS SO MUCH and you don't want to get blood on your little alien buddy. It helps if you stab the bottom more to get it smaller so it will be more alien-head-shaped.

   Grab whatever colour wool you want for the eyes(I just used black but it would look pretty cool to use another colour)

   Take an itsy bitsy piece of black(I probably took a little bit too much) roll it into an oval and stab it onto the head until it's secure.

   Put some more felt down to attach the safety pin to the head as shown above^

  Hold up the chain where you plan to pin in and measure however long you want it.

  Put the chain through the safety pins on each side. You could use a jump ring to attach it to the safety pin but the way I did it makes it so it's easy to change the chain. That way you can have different lengths and colours!

   TADA DONE DONE DONE. You can wear these attached on your collar, a cardigan, or like me, just a t-shirt!

  Aren't the galaxy leggings and alien clips great together? And the alien theme matches my blog title nicely :)

  

  I made a video too if you would rather watch that instead. 

  I hope you like this tutorial and if you did please share it with your friends and/or fam jam. Thank you for reading and I hope you come back! Please comment if you have any questions or just want to say hi :) Loooooooooooooooove yoooooouuuuuuuuuuu
