I was wondering if you guys made your own shirts and what not. If so how do you go about making shirts or whatever?

I use iron ons for complicated graphics and acrylics for simple stencil like graphics on my shirts.

I also make my own hemp bracelets and scarfs from yarn. _smile.gif

I have never made any of my own shirts before, but that's pretty cool. I tried once, but the shirt came out all messed up....My grandma makes me sweaters though!

Haha yeah, I've made quite a few. That's how I made my Napoleon Dynamite shirt:



But yeah, I usually just buy patches or I cut shirts up and sew fishnet on. whistling.gif

I dont make my own t-shirts.

But some people do at my school.
Like some take their shirts 2 get it air brush of some kind of picture they want. But thats not making ur own shirt. I think.

Others put this special kind of glue and spend it on their shirt. Its pretty cool. Then they do it on their shoes and backpack.

But i dont make my own. No time. And I'll just mess everything up. Or get in trouble.

i had this pair of jeans i ripped when i fell, so i ripped a bunch of other places and washed it with a drop of bleach so it looked vintage.... i cut a pair of old jeans to make them the same length as those bermuda shorts that used to be in style..... i havent done anything with shirts, but i made my hoodie sleeveless.....

if i had a sewing machine i would totally make a bunch of stuff
