Refashion 101: Rescue them oversized tees

Is your cupboard full of oversized tees that you don't know what to do with? Well here's an idea: refashion them into baby tees/long tops!


The old Etsy labs blog has a super simple tutorial on how to do that, and without all the hassle of pining. All you need is a big tee, a stapler, basic sewing skills, and a friend. Please REMEMBER you need a friend to help you with this. An enemy might just staple your flesh and go "Oops, didn't mean to stapler you, tee hee hee". Man, that won't be fun.

Check out the tutorial here, and for more ideas head on to their new blog, Storque.

Don't have a sewing machine? You can always get one of these little hand sewing machines from the pasar malam at around 10 bucks or so, though we only recommend it for light sewing, it's quite a bit of a workout on the fingers hehe.
