T-Shirt Recon: Tie Front

I have so many t-shirts in my closet that are baggy in the front giving my hourglass figure a boyish one.  Here's a fun and simple way to alter these shirts using just a pair of scissors.

I drew a diagram showing where to cut if you want to alter the sleeves and neck line also.
Make sure to keep all the cuts even so one sleeve isn't longer than the other (unlike my diagram)

Put the shirt on and mark where you will be cutting your holes to tie the shirt at.  They should be right under your chest evenly spaced apart.  Then make these cuts but make sure to keep them small so you don't have gaps when you pull it tight.

For the tie string you can use scrap from one of the sleeves, or a piece of fabric or decorative ribbon.  String it out through the holes so each end hangs out for you to tie.

Tie the string as tight as you wish in a bow or knot.  =)
