diy // howdy crop top

i recently came across this image of olivia munn wearing a howdy crop top. at texas a&m university, students are encouraged to greet everyone they pass on campus with a smile and a big ol' HOWDY! hearing the greeting countless times from fellow students these past few years has earned "howdy" a spot close to my heart. so, naturally, i immediately fell in love with this top. unfortunately, i was not the willing to spend the big bucks on it so i decided to make one of my own!

step 1: gather your materials

:: black t-shirt

:: scissors

:: chalk (or something to mark with)

:: white fabric paint 

** stencil (I free handed)

step 2: cut off the collar

step 3: cut off the sleeves

step 4: use the chalk to measure how short you want to cut the bottom

step 5: cut off the bottom where you marked it

step 6: paint the letters on using the white fabric paint

i freehanded the letters but feel free to use a stencil

FINAL PRODUCT!
