brandy melville look-alike pocket T

Ok, so recently I've been obsessed with Brandy Melville, but I simply CAN'T afford the prices! So I've been googling ways to DIY the styles,and I found some pretty cool ones. In this post,I'm going to show you how to make your own Pocket T-Shirt.

WHAT YOU NEED:

-scissors

-a cool-patterned fabric

-glue gun

-a plain t-shirt(not too precious)

-a piece of cardboard that is large but can still fit into your shirt

Ps: Sorry for the blurry pics, I took them with my iPod camera; and obviously,be careful when using scissors and a glue gun :)

1: When the glue gun's ready, glue a small strip along the first edge, making sure to leave room for the fold.

2: Take your finger and gently fold the fabric over onto the glue; firm enough to make it hold temporarily.

3: Push the side of the pen down fairly hard on the fold, sealing it in place.
Note: It doesn't matter if some of the glue comes out, you won't see this part anyway.

4: Repeat to the surrounding corners, leaving the bottom for last.

5: put on your t-shirt and mark where you want the pocket.
Note: Since this shirt shouldn't be washed after this DIY, you should mark the spot directly under where the pocket should be placed.

 

6: Glue around the edges, place firmly on the shirt, and you are done!

 

Hope it helped!
