Perhaps I'm just a complete domestic fail, but I find myself losing quite a few shirts to the dryer monster. Y'know, that thing that tatters delicate materials, shrinks perfectly good clothes, and eats up missing socks.
So to combat that, I've started to salvage my shrunken shirts. In my definition of DIY, I consider cutting off sleeves to be perfectly acceptable. So now, like the tartan piece in my photos, I have a bunch of vests and tank tops. That's right, dryer monster- you may have taken my single socks, but I've outsmarted you on the shirts!

I love this look! very cute, comfy and casual. I can relate to you, I have messed up so many cute tops by accidentally shrinking them after washing them. I always hate when that happens.
ReplyDeleteHahaha! I hate it when the dryer ruins my clothes!
