How to turn a t-shirt into a new statement? Restyle, repair, upcycle it to give it a longer life! And we are collecting & sharing 100 ideas to do that! This is the #100greenstatements challenge by FOR KEEPS, and this week we teamed up with jewelry designer Ghislaine from Wenaclassics. You can read more about her in the Meet the Maker blog. Finally we can show what she turned shirt #24 in to!
How did you make the creation?
In my opinion, brooches are the easiest way to customize any outfit and own it.
I personally like to wear pins, or brooches, on t shirts and or on a jackets. But I’ve found out that there are many ways to upstyle an outfit just by using a unique, handcrafted, upcycled brooch…
Some inspiration
Design from scratch by collecting unusual materials 
Safety pin is a great way to start. 
You can pull fabric through it (check video below) 
and tie it into a bow. 
And to add, brooches (from upcycled materials) 
you can wear it on a necklace 
And you can add something like a lonely earring right to the safety pin!
You want to try it yourself?
