Supplies To Make Homemade Ugly Christmas Sweaters:
If you want to give your old sweater a makeover, start gathering the necessary supplies. You will need an old sweater that you don’t mind cutting up, some fabric scraps for extra flair, glue to hold everything together, and a pair of scissors for precise snipping.
With these items in hand and a bit of creativity, you can create a unique piece of apparel from something that was once headed for the trash (or better yet, the donation pile). Have fun with it and show off your style!
