Last week, I finally received my very first 13 Lucky Monkey t-shirt! πŸ™‚Β  I’ve been wanting one for sooooo long.Β  Thanks so much for sparing me one, Mr. Lucky Monkey! Hahaha! I know I wanted a size small but it was reserved for someone else so the large will do! Because if I don’t take this, I may never have one EVER.Β  LOL!!! Kidding! These shirts were made by our friends from Good Government (Instagram: @goodgovernment) So sorry for what I’m about to do to your awesome t-shirt…

Ok, so here’s the large tee πŸ™‚ I would wear this shirt as is for sure and maybe just fold the sleeves.Β  But I wanted to do something different with it.Β  I know some of my friends have been doing this for years, cutting up oversized t-shirts and turning them into something new.Β  So I decided to try it out with this 13 Lucky Monkey t-shirt.

So I got one of my favorite tank tops so that it would be easier for me to cut the shirt.Β  This one is from Be.Everyday, a local brand that I was so happy to discover during the Whitespace Pop Up earlier this year.Β  Check out more of their cool tank tops at their Instagram account: @be.everyday.ph πŸ™‚

So using chalk, I just traced the sleeves and made the armhole just a little bit bigger so that I can use this shirt over my sports bra when I go indoor cycling.Β  Yessss πŸ™‚Β  Hahaha! Arte.

You can cut the shirt using any ordinary scissors but I used the largest one I had so that there will less zigzags when I cut.

Then you can just fold the shirt in the middle to make sure both sides are equally cut.Β  Then just smoothen the edges πŸ™‚

My Be.Everyday shirt is shorter in the front than the back.Β  So I just followed the pattern πŸ™‚
