DIY American Flag Tank

I have been seeing everyone lately in awesome American Flag t-shirts or tank tops and I wanted one. Yesterday I went shopping and was looking for one but no luck. And I thought, I can make one myself.  I have noticed other wonderful bloggers doing DIY American Flag shirt, so I thought why not try it. 

How I made mine

-I used a regular white t-shirt and cut it into my desired tank top.

-I used painters tape to mark where the lines would go and where the stars would be

-I cut out star shapes 

-I painted the red stripes first, I didn't fill them in all the way either. It gives it a rough look.

-Then I taped the starts down to my desire and painted navy blue around them (be careful they don't move) 

-Then I let dry 

-And I took of the tape. Poof. American Flag tank top. 

Cautions

-I used regular acrylic paint so I will have to be extra careful washing it. I didn't have fabric paint laying around or I would have used that. 

I absolutely love how it turned out. I don't think it could have gone any better. I am now looking into other patterns I can paint onto tank tops or t-shirts. I also want to do America Flag shorts. I am totally inspired by something I did myself. So if you have a regular white shirt laying around and what to do something cute with it. Try this. 

Got any great DIY projects, I would love to check them out.
