Sexy shredded dangly beach coverup

'ello! Tonight we're making a "shredded dangly shirt," (yes, that is the scientific name.)
I want to start off by saying that I completely cocked this up, but the general idea is there. Plus, I'm going to link to the blog that inspired me so you'll be able to see a decent one.

Things you'll need:

• 100% cotton t-shirt (1 or 2 sizes bigger - depending on how big you want it)
• Sharp sissors
• Pencil or fabric pencil
• 6" x 6" square from paper
• Ruler (optional. You can free ball it)
• Paper clips/clothes pins

This is the shirt I chose. It's just a shirt I had bumming around and I thought it was cute. I cut the neck off because I hate high necks on shirts this looks better once said and done. (PS- This shirt if from Old Navy, 2 St. Patrick's Days ago.)

 Step One: 
          Turn the shirt inside out. Fold in half so that the two seams on the shoulders are touching flat. I used paper clips to keep this secure.

Step Two:
           On the back, take your square of paper and fold it in half so it becomes a triangle. Place one side on one half of the shirt, and the other on the other side in the middle. Secure with paper clips. Trace with pencil on both sides.

Step Three:
          Starting from one side of the square, draw straight lines to the seams.

Step Four:
          Carefully cut the lines. Starting from the square, cut lines. **At the neck, you must cut one line horizontally to create a strap to keep the top on.

***Optional***:
          If you chose, cut out the triangles that are created from cutting the lines out. This will create a very sexy and open look.

Step Five:
         Pull shirt so that the lines that you cut roll. After this, wash the shirt to get rid of pencil marks and to help everything roll.

Step Six:
          Wear to the beach over your bathing suit, or wear a tank top underneath for a sexy look! :)
