DIY Time: Spinal Tap a PWT*

*plain white tee

It feels like it’s been forever since my last DIY (I don’t even remember what it was…or if I actually did one…I mean, I thought about doing one…never mind).  Jazzy sent me over this cool lil’ tutorial on making a tornado tee and I merely expanded on the idea.  What resulted was cut-out madness that resembled vertebae.  WIN.

After about half an hour, you should end up with something that looks like this:

    I am loving that tee! Too bad I don’t have the skills or the patience for it. LOL.

    Great look. Unfortunately I’m not that talented in handcrafting.

    I did this DIY! I did it a while ago and I wore it so infrequently with the pull-over effect that I started wearing it just slashed.
