DIY: Overall Shorts (A Comeback Post)

HEY GUYS, I'M BACK!  Sorry I've been gone for "a while" (*coughs*) Well I've been gone for 11 months; so yeah, I'm really sorry. :(

   So since I've been gone for a looooong time, I'll make it up to you guys with a special DIY comeback post!

   First, let's start off with this: I AM OBSESSED WITH OVERALLS. I know, they're kind of weird for a teenager like I am, but to tell you the truth I really haven't lost that touch of childishness in me yet.  Lately, I've also seen them worn by celebrities, and that they're making a comeback for the trend this year.  I'm glad to have known that I'm not the only one who has a taste for them :D

   So back to the topic, I've been searching for the perfect dungarees to cut off as overalls shorts (since I'm a cheapskate I wouldn't dare buy the expensive ones) so I went to local thrift stores in search of it.  It took me forever to find one that I almost thought of giving up UNTIL I saw these babies:


The perfect dungarees!  I jumped in joy after finally finding these.  I found these at a local thrift store near our town in the men's section.  The tag says it's size 29, but when I tried it on, it fitted me well (FYI my waistline is 25-26)  So I didn't waste time to buy this pair.  And the best part?  It only costed me Php 100! :D


What you'll need:
*Overall pants/ dungarees
*Marking Pen
*Scissors


STEPS: Okay, so let's skip the details. You only need to follow 3 steps: MARK, CUT, FOLD, and you're done! :)



VOILA!  Now you have a pair of sick-looking overalls shorts!
I was thinking of making a post on how to wear them,what do you think?  I would really like to know what you think, so please leave a comment or two, aiyt? :)

Bye!


(P.S. I'm going to post more DIY's every two weeks as much as possible, so please bear with me)

DIY Adventure Time Shirt

For those who are following me on Instagram, some of you might have seen pictures of I painting an adventure time shirt. So, here is the tutorial on how to make it! (Sorry it took soooo long.)

My friend's sister paid me to do this, since she was a fan of Adventure Time, which is also my favorite, so it took me up courage to give it to her, since I also wanted to have it :D

Let's start!
TOOLS/MATERIALS:
*Plain white shirt/top
*Pencil
*Fabric Marker
*Fabric paint
*Paintbrush
*Newspaper

STEP 1: Start drawing the pattern, I did mine some of the characters of Adventure Time.



Hah! Finished drawing :D

STEP 2: Using your fabric marker, fill in the outlines of the stencils.


STEP 3: Paint!
Hahaha so here's the finished product! I hope you enjoyed this tutorial, bye! :D

MESSY!

Have a great weekend guys! :D

DIY Galaxy Mustache Top

Remember my post about the DIY Galaxy Shoes? So, if you think my galaxy obsessions are over, well think again!

I have 2 pieces of mustache tops I made some time ago, so for today, its all about how to "galaxify" this mustache top. Let's get started!

TOOLS/MATERIALS:
*A mustache top/shirt; or you could just make one like I did
*Blue, Violet, Pink, and White textile paint
*Glitters
* Paintbrush
*Sponge
*An old toothbrush
*An old magazine

STEP 1: Put a n old magazine inside the top to prevent soaking the paint through.


STEP 2: Start painting. Start first using the blue paint as a base coat.

STEP 3: The begin with the violet paint.

STEP 4: Add pink and white, and blend it with the blue and violet paint, for it to be more "cloudy-fluffy-looking."


STEP 5: Using an old toothbrush, dip it in the white paint, and scrape it off to add the stars. Then add glitters for it to look more shiny.




And there you have it! A galaxy-riffic mustache top!
Hope you enjoyed this tutorial guys, I hope you'll leave a comment. I love reading them.

BYE! :D

FUN TEE ♥

Hey guys! Let me share you what I did yesterday....SHOPPING! Yes, I was looking for shirts inside a department store at the mall, then I saw these shirts from the brand "Fun Tee" and I was left in aw how awesome their shirts were, and they were 10% off, so I stole 3 shirts, just kidding, I bought them! :D



This is the first shirt I bought, a MEME-BASED shirt. I loved the "Me Gusta" meme. It was originally 129 pesos (almost $4), but it was 10% off :D




The second shirt was a "MUSTACHE" inspired shirt. I loved how it has the different styles of mustaches of the world :D



This last shirt is my favorite, it is a "THE HUNGER GAMES" based shirt.

Exams are coming so I'll be gone for a week or two, gonna cram up and study what is needed to be studied.  Have a great week guys! :D
