Okay. Well, I was wondering...how do you make your own clothes, jewlery, etc.?

I'm really interested in making my own shirts, and I have a sketchbook full of ideas..but the problem is. I'm bad at sewing, finding the right fabric, etc...and for making your own jewlery, I don't even know where to begin. Any good sites that teaches you how to do those kind of things?

Also, how do you make spray on tee shirts and stuff? I know this one girl (well, I dont really know know her) and she makes her own tee shirts with stencils and spray paint. Are there specific items you need to make those (besides spray paint and blank tee shirt), and any specific things you need to do? And, where can you find these items?

Thankss

^well if you're good at drawing you can always make your own stencils with cardboard. it'd be cool since it's your own design.

You can't keep running from what you're trying to find.

every Teen Vogue magazine issue has one DIY thing.
It's not making the things from scratch usually, but like how to make an old t-shirt special or something.
