With spring just around the corner, it's time to store the warm winter clothes and bring out spring clothes, which I tried to except...I realized I don't have any. In fact, all I have are big band and event T-shirts, and despite them being unflattering, I love flaunting the geeky stuff I'm interested in and the things I have accomplished. I've been wearing the T-shirts as is for years, but being in Tokyo, one of the biggest fashion cities in the world, I've decided maybe it's time to be fashionable for a change.
With that being said, I did a search on the interwebs and found lots of tutorials for reconstructing and upcycling T-shirts, so I've decided to give it a go. I have a sewing machine coming in the mail and when it gets here I'll be reconstructing one shirt a week. Now, keep in mind I have absolutely no experience in sewing or clothing reconstruction, so if you can bear following DIY disasters and the occasional success, I will post my projects here, along with the tutorials that came with them so you can try them out yourself. Hopefully after some time, I can try my own DIYs and make some tutorials myself (wishful thinking, I know).
I will post again with my first project just as soon as the sewing machine arrives and from then on I will do a weekly post. I will also appreciate any suggestions and/or projects that you want me to tackle before you go for them yourselves.
