About
Hey I'm Mari and I really like the DIY movement. I have no money so that's one reason. Plus I like having stuff to do. Plus I like doing things myself and being independent. Besides, making really weird clothes and stuff is fun (and hey, no sweat shops, right?). I've never seen a website quite like this but it's a good idea. I like seeing all the random stuff people come up with.
Anyway, I collect really random stuff that clutters my room (much to my mom's appreciation) and I like using it to make new things, like pull-tab belts and stuff. I also really like duct tape. It's one of the greatest inventions I've ever seen, right up there with Top Ramen.
P.S. A good website to check out would be Anticraft! if you are into the punk or goth thing. They have some great ideas, especially if you knit (like me) or crochet.
Another is Instructables.com which is not only a craft website, it shows you how to fix things, make things for your house or car and things like that. They have a lot of really technical electronic projects, recycled items, duct tape projects, as well as making clothes and jewelry. It's very good, check it out.

I hardly wear pants. But I wanted something to make pants more interesting, but also to make a boring skirt more interesting.
the brand i use is called Tulip. are the paints you're using for fabric? because is u just use acrylic it will crack/flake off. also have you been heat setting it after painting? it helps the paint bond with the fibers of the fabric to prevent flaking. i also suggest washing the garment inside out. i hope this helps
Yes, I used the biiiiig purple one :3
