5 Easy Sweatshirt Remakes
I had a few old sweatshirts lying around and I wanted to give them a totally new look.
Each of these projects are super easy to do and under about $15 each to make (or less if you have some of the embellishments already!)
If you love easy remakes and cute loungewear- this one's for you! Check out the video for the full how-to's. 
Tools and materials:
- Sweatshirt
- Fabric Fusion Glue
- Fabric Scissors
- Grommet Kit
- Hammer
- Trim
- Flannel Shirt
- Ribbon
1. Grommet-tie sweatshirt
I started by cutting up the collar of a black sweatshirt into a "v" shape.
I purchased a "Grommet Kit" with brass grommets on Amazon for about $7.
Next, I mapped out where I wanted my grommets to go and I placed the tool inside to punch out the holes.
After the holes were poked I flipped the sweatshirt inside-out and attached the grommets with a hammer.
Flip the sweatshirt right side out. Then, tie a ribbon through the grommets or leave them open!
Annnd here's the end result! I styled this with some leather leggings, boots and gold hoops.
It is super easy and looks way more expensive then it was to make!
2. Cut-out sweatshirt
This is the easiest remake ever!
Just cut two half circles in each sleeve and cut out a triangle along the neckline!
I paired this sweatshirt with some plaid paints and combat boots for a comfy edgy look!
3. Trim sweatshirt
For this sweatshirt remake - all you need is trim and fabric fusion glue!
I mapped out the design I wanted, cut and glued the trim with fabric fusion glue.
This one has such a fun vintage vibe! I styled this with high-waisted jeans, black booties and a fun bag.
4. Cheetah stencil sweatshirt
For this sweatshirt I grabbed silver fabric paint and a cheetah stencil.
I decided I wanted to do a more "pattern block" effect as opposed to doing an all-over print.
I sectioned off and stenciled across the sweatshirt in the middle.
Then, I added some trim to frame it!
Throw on some leggings, sneakers and a backpack for this cute and comfy look to run errands in!
5. 1/2 flannel sweatshirt
For this sweatshirt, I had an old flannel that I cut up and attached to the sleeves of a maroon sweatshirt.
Make sure the sleeves are cut at the same angle and are the same size.
Slide on the flannel sleeves and fold over to give a more finished look.
Use fabric fusion glue to adhere or you could sew these on if you have a sewing machine!
I added some extra fabric glue by the sleeve to give it some extra durability!
After that, I attached the pocket from the flannel for an extra pop of pattern!
I styled this look with some black jeans and boots for a super casual comfy look!
