Hello kids, I'm Marta,
I'm a stylist and I'll explain this to you in a few simple steps.
You will have a fantastic look and will be the best dressed this evening.
Let's see, we'll take some buttons,
some needles, a bit of thread, some water, some paint, some tape
and, most importantly, two things that everyone
should have in their wardrobe: a black shirt
and a pair of jeans.
First of all, let’s take the colourful shirt,
then the black shirt.
Put it over the colourful one.
Draw a line across the shirt.
And then cut
along the line we've just drawn...
As you can see, the colourful shirt beneath it appears.
Let’s pull a needle through here,
and then here, and also a bit of black thread
to stitch the two pieces together.
Once we get to the bottom, we make a small knot.
And now in the lower part of the shirt,
let’s cut some fringes.
The shirt is now ready, so we can move on to the jeans.
Let’s take a pair of jeans
and turn them into shorts.
We trace the line we're going to cut along.
We cut our jeans.
What are we going to do with these shorts now? I thought we should use some buttons.
We therefore take all different sizes - some smaller, some bigger.
Pull the thread through the first hole, then the second
A good start, hey?
Then we take a pair of black leggings
and now we use brushes and colours.
And brush them onto the arm like this,
and trace along the leg,
so in the lower part of the leg, we paint
some patterns like this.
There - all done, we've completed the leggings
with a fireworks pattern.
Let’s move on to the shoes.
Take a pair of sandals that you have at home
and cut a first piece of tape,
then glue it onto this strap of the shoe.
I've stuck some tape all over the shoe: on the wedge, on the front and around the ankle.
We're almost ready, now the shoes are done.
I thought of making two final things.
First of all, let’s get a pair of colourful tights
and cut a hole here
to stick a thumb through.
With the other tights we can for example make some bracelets
and wear them on
our wrist, like this.
A final touch,
and this is a surprise:
a top hat.
And what will I take out of the cylinder?
A string of lights with batteries.
The string of lights is wound around,
and we hide the batteries inside the top hat.
A small piece of tape
sticks it to the other part.
Kids, we're ready now,
and you've seen how, with some small items we had at home
we were able to create a very original look:
A shirt, a pair of jeans, a pair of leggings and a pair of sandals.
this fantastic glove and this hat.
one,
two,
three,
four...
