Sweatshirt Re-style, Drawstring Skirt DIY.

I saw this skirt while I was looking thorough Victoria's Secret and
 I thought it would be so  easy to make out of a sweatshirt.




Tutorial 
Things you need.
  1. Sweatshirt
  2.  Scissors
  3. Scrap tee-shirt
  4. Safety pin
  5. Studs*Optional *Hobby lobby
 I found this sweatshirt at Wal-mart for $5.
Cut the sweatshirt straight 
right below the arms.
 I took another shirt and cut an 1 1/2 inch  strip to make my tie.
 Stretch it out to make a string.
 Cut a small hole in the band.
be careful to only cut one layer

Place your string on a safety pin or
I used a hair clip.
Weave the string through the hole all the way around the skirt and pull it out on the other side.
tie  a knot on each end of your ties.
 If you want to spice up your skirt add some studs or paint.
 Whatever you want to make it your own creation.
 I placed studs all the way down both sides.
or you could just leave it plain.

 A great little summer skirt or beach cover up,
all for just $6.

  3. I think a smaller sweat shirt would be ideal so the string wouldn't make the skirt gather so much. All in all, a very good, creative post. I just might try it!!
