Haul

So these are the things I got when I and my Mom decided to drop by a Watsons store in SM about a month ago. (Late update. Haha) A facial toner, facial scrub, tinted moisturizer and panty liners. The liners are necessary so we could get a free candy wallet. (Photo to be added soon).
Product reviews will also be posted soon!

DIY Starry Shorts

And, due to lack of anything nice to do, I have decided to transform my shorts into a starry one.


Things you'll need:
  • Denim shorts
  • Pencil
  • Piece of foam
  • Cardboard
  • Scissors
  • white Fabric paint
First, using the pencil, trace stars of different sizes on the cardboard. Don't stress too much, the stars doesn't have to be perfect. Next, cut the stars to make stencils like the ones on the photo below. 



Then, pour some fabric paint on a piece of cardboard. Put a cardboard inside the shorts so in case the paint bleeds through, the back portion of the shorts wouldn't be damaged. Lay a stencil on the shorts, it'd be better if you position it on the bottom right/left part of the shorts. Using the foam, dip it on the fabric paint.


After dipping, gently press the foam on the stencil. Press until the figure is complete. Repeat using a different size of star. Do it over and over again until the desired design is achieved. Let it dry. And lastly, place a clean sheet of paper on top of the shorts and iron (press) on the part with stars. Congrats! Your shorts are no longer plain and boring :D


My starry starry shorts! Hihi. 'Til next post!

DIY Mickey Mouse Shirt

Because my life is really boring and my days are usually unproductive, I always end up making DIY shirts and whatnots. Here's a very simple one.
What you'll need
  • Plain white shirt
  • Black cloth or old black shirt
  • Fabric paint
  • Crayola for tracing
  • Scissors
  • Circle things you could trace (1 big, 1 small)
This is a no brainer, really. First, take the black cloth and lay it flat on a cardboard. Next, using the crayon, trace a big circle in the black shirt. Then, trace two circles on the upper left&right part of the big circle. Now, just cut the pattern and you'll have a Mickey Mouse figure. (Refer to the photo below)


After that, insert a cardboard inside the white shirt. Place the cutout in the center of the shirt, or wherever you desire. Then you can either sew the cutout using a black thread or you can either glue it to the shirt. In my case, I used the fabric paint because it is really sticky. Then after drying it up, just iron (or press) the cutout (front and back).

If you wish to add any more design, you could. It's your shirt anyway :D
This is what my Mickey Mouse pattern looks like. I added broken lines using white fabric paint to add effect to the design. Hihi.

More power Disney! Ciao!

Trying it out.
