space jam

I tumblrd across the best DIY I've seen in a long time the other day; it comes from the website szmoon.net and tells you how to make a galaxy shirt. Well as I love all things space I had to give it a go!

It's very messy and involves spraying bleach and flickering paint! I got a mans T-Shirt (£3 Asda) and cut it up a bit, I was going to turn it into a vest but decided to keep the sleeves.

The planet brooch is vintage Tatty Devine.I also have a space rocket necklace which would've gone very well but my dad's got the worst habit of 'tidying up' where he in facts hides all my belongings. I swear there's a secret cupboard somewhere in this house full of fun stuff.

So I'm pretty happy with how it turned out...I think I need to add some more white and yellow splodges and maybe some glitter or even sew some planets on? I think if I did it again I'd stencil it into one area- like a triangle or a star

Have you found any good tutorials or DIY's lately?
