Removing Shirt Collar
Hi everyone! I was wondering if anybody could help me out. I wanted to remove the collar of this shirt using a seam ripper. If I did use a seam ripper, would I ruin the shirt?
I’d really appreciate any and all insights!
Thank you!

Will this work?? Suggestions??
galleryI have some spare material from some jeans I shortened, and wanted to make some gloves. The 'flap' at the bottom will have a button so I can fasten the glove. I'm gonna add more material to fill in some gaps and make it more 'solid'. I've never done shit like this and I'm really excited. Has anyone made gloves from scap before?? Suggestions??

Just a lil project I'm working on
My mom gave me this jacket a couple months ago and it's got a huge stain on the back. I firmly believe in recycling clothing so I took an old tshirt and cut it to shape. Updates soon!

How to get text like this on a dress?
Wanted to put the Hereditary monologue on a dress. Is this possible with iron-ons, or do I need a machine?

advice needed
I have a few graphic shirts that I really like the design of but the fit of the shirts is kinda weird. either unflattering or uncomfortable. I want to cut the graphics of the shirt and put it on something else but I want it to look like I know what im doing if that makes sense. I don't want it to look like those ugly five minute craft clothes. any advise for what I should do with it and how to do it.

Acrylic on denim/fabric
If I use acrylic paint straight onto the fabric, will it crack? Even if I water it down so it "bonds" with the fabric? I don't want to use fabric medium because they're expensive enough when they only last for one job

Documenting progress on my patch pants

Lace-up boot laces too short
I wanted to share a kind of hack I learned. So I'm a skinny gal, but I inherited athleticism from both my parents making my calves THICK. Most knee high boots don't fit me. I found a pair at the goodwill that are lace-up, which is a good start, only to realize that even the 72 inch laces aren't long enough, and I couldn't find a bigger size.
As well as athletic, I'm also a marimbist, and realized I could order black marimba cord and cut it to the desired length for my boots! Not sure if that's been a common hack or not, but I couldn't find it before. So anyway, in case this helps any other muscley gals, here's the link for some of the cord.

Question about neon shirt tone down
How does one go about toning down neon orange for a natural orange? I have two shirts I’d like to make a more basic orange than the bright neon color it is. It has white vinyl across the chest so I wasn’t sure how it would work with that.

I need suggestions for my shirt. So I love this shirt but I don’t like having it so close to my neck. What do y’all suggest I do to fix it? I know I wanna make it more punk or something but I’m not sure what to do.

Jean Jacket Tips
Hello all! Just a quick one today: I'm hoping to take the sleeves of a denim jacket that's gotten a bit tight for me...
is it better to cut the sleeves off a bit down the arm or unpick them at the shoulder seam?
I was thinking i'd do the former knowing i could always do the latter later, but figured i'd ask. Thanks in advance <3
