T-Shirt Make-Over.

If you are looking for a fun way to dress up your Girl Scout Shirts, here is an idea...!
I was asked to put this tutorial up for you all and in perfect timing too...!
For Vacation Bible School this year, the kids all got T-shirts and they were a little too big. So I thought that I would make them over for their performance. I actually timed myself because as we were heading out the door to go to church, Maelyn says "Mom, I do want my shirt like Patience's now." It took me 7 minutes to make hers...!
Take your t-shirt.
 Cut each side from the bottom up to the armpit/sleeve.
 Next, cut a series of slits. Make sure to cut the front and back at the same time so the slits are the same length. I make mine about 1 inch wide....you can do up to 3 inches. How far in you cut depends upon how tight you want the shirt. If the shirt is really big, cut further in.
*Just realized we could have done this with our Cleanup Shirts*
 Tie them together. Make sure you double knot.
Simple as that...!
Have your child model with a goofy face and you are done...!
