I am loving all of these shirt refashions I have been seeing. I have over 100 shirts, so I really don't need any new shirts but I like to have something new and exciting. This solved my problem and it was free!!
These are a pair of my sons pants, yup there's a nice hole it in, so I decided to take them and make flowers for my shirt.
This is how I made it:
1) I cut the pants into strips. As you can see, they don't need to be prefect and they can be various sizes
2) To make the flower, cut a circle out of felt and then tie a knot at the end of the strip. Then with a glue gun, glue it to the felt
3) Twist the fabric and then start circling the knot, gluing as you go
That's it for the flowers! I just glued them directly onto the shirt. And yes it has gone through the wash and did just fine!!
This is super easy but it gives a little life to my shirt and I'm excited to wear it again!

Turned out really cute and a great way to use up some of those trashed pants.

I really like these little fabric flowers. I haven't made any yet but I do plan on it soon.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea. I love the flowers out of those pants, if it was me, I'd be looking for a million other things to put the flowers on! lol

ReplyDeleteVery fun. I {heart} fabric flowers! Kind of obsessed!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun way to dress up a shirt!!
ReplyDeleteSo darling. But girl, you must have the patience of Job! That looks so time consuming, is it? So cute though. Be blessed. Cindy
ReplyDeleteCindy:
ReplyDeleteit's not time consuming at all, it only takes a couple of minutes for each flower. Probably all together about 30 minutes
This is such a great idea! Thank you for sharing @ Anything Related
ReplyDeleteI don't really sew and I think I could do this! Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeletelove how you did this on a patterned shirt!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the flowers!
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up with Sugar & Spice.
I'm just catching up on blogs from when I was gone on vacation. great minds must think alike! I just made a shirt and headband with flowers like this. I saw them in a shop in San Diego and thought, "I could do this. For much less than it costs in this store!"
ReplyDeleteI LOVE it and I am linking this post to my blog. Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteHi, I'm dropping by from the Shabby Chic Cottage linky party. Cute idea! I love making yo-yo flowers, but this is so much simpler! I like the look of the twisty thing. Those flowers would look perfect on the denim purse I made out of my son's blue jeans a couple of weeks ago. I've been wondering what to do to embellish them. Hmmm...
ReplyDeleteI love cute shirts too...refashioning is so fun isn't it? Donna @ Comin' Home
