Altered Shirts




At Twilight Camp for Girl Scouts we always have matching shirts that we need to wear for all 3 days. The second my oldest saw the shirt she said she would never be wearing it again.. she is too cool for everyday T-shirts. As part of the badge the Juniors are working on they needed to alter a piece of clothing. After observing what a lot of the older girls had done to their shirts, this was the design they wanted.
Split the shirt up the sides, cut about 1 inch strips and tie them in double knots. We also cut off the sleeves and cut V's in the neckline. A shirt now must be worn under the modified T, but to hear the picky 10 year old say that she would now wear this shirt over and over is very worth it!
