recently, i've been customizing a lot of my blank shirts and canvas tote bags with fabric paint, iron on transfer paper, fabric markers, etc... and i've been making a few for my friends. i was wondering if anyone else customizes their own clothing or something? it would be great if you posted pics of some that you did! my camera broke a long time ago so i don't have any pics to show.
and also, do you know where i can buy plain hooded sweat shirts for a good price? i want to customize one for my friend. |

I wanted to try making my own clothes sometime. But that never happened. Plus, i don't have a sewing machine.
You can probably find plain hoodies at Wal-mart for a good price. It may be harder to find since summer is approaching, however. |

I love doing that. One time i made a Iron-on with the hulk on it saying "Boy's PMS too". Then we started to cut the shirt up, and made it look all ripped up and old. And on the back it has a corset type lacing. I love making your own clothings.

I used to do that a lot. i used to take ribbons and glitter and studs and do my jeans. I like cutting up and making cook stuff outta t-shirts too. i usually go to michaels or mjdesigns to get blank stuff, but I dont know if they have those where you live. basically your best bet is a craft store...or wal*mart. always low prices...always

That really sounds like a lot of fun...I don't really know where to buy plain white t's (hahaa band <3) anyway. And my creativity doesn't go very far =/

QUOTE I wanted to try making my own clothes sometime. But that never happened. Plus, i don't have a sewing machine. Yeah, me either - I handsew everything.  QUOTE kathleen's really good at it. i try, but..i don't have a lot of opportunites. Aww thanks, Sammi. Hehe once you find that turtleneck.  Yeah, let's see...I made my glove thingy: I...customized these really plain jeans I got from Weathervane that I didn't like:    More recently, I had fun with this 579 shirt I knew I wasn't going to wear unless I dolled it up:    Oh and as you can see my necklace, I kinda made that, too. Aaand...I like to put patches on things:   Basically, safety pins and scissors are my friends.
