Crop tops are cool, but sometimes I don't want my belly out. On Monday, August 21, Erin showed how to make a <a href="https://bellatory.com/news/front-wrap-dress-tie-hack" rel="nofollow"> wrap top </a> that gives a different look and more coverage than a <a href="https://bellatory.com/news/crop-top-running-shirt" rel="nofollow"> crop top </a> . Check it out. <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate><div data-type="SOCIAL_CARD"><blockquote cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@erinscolorfulcloset/video/7269596957994175786" class="tiktok-embed" data-video-id="7269596957994175786"><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@erinscolorfulcloset?refer=embed" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="@erinscolorfulcloset"> @erinscolorfulcloset </a> Make a wrap top with me! <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/sewingtiktok?refer=embed" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="sewingtiktok"> #sewingtiktok </a><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/sewingtutorial?refer=embed" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="sewingtutorial"> #sewingtutorial </a><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/diytutorial?refer=embed" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="diytutorial"> #diytutorial </a><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/wraptop?refer=embed" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="wraptop"> #wraptop </a><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/music/Echos-in-My-Mind-Lofi-7197097971182209025?refer=embed" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="♬ Echos in My Mind (Lofi) - Muspace Lofi"> ♬ Echos in My Mind (Lofi) - Muspace Lofi </a></blockquote></div> Shout out to those people like <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@erinscolorfulcloset" rel="nofollow"> @erinscolorfulcloset </a> who make it easy for us to follow their directions and DIY a new top or outfit. She made a very cute wrap top and said that all we needed was a big rectangular piece of fabric with a hole in the middle like the <a href="https://tempest.saymedia.com/converse-flower-embroidery" rel="nofollow"> floral </a> printed one she held up. "The width of this rectangle should be half of your waist measurement plus about six inches," Erin said. <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> She said that the height should be two times the distance from your shoulder to where you want the shirt to end. "The hole in the middle should be however big you want the neck hole to be," she said. "You can try it on to figure it out." Erin said to <a href="https://bellatory.com/news/no-sew-kimono-diy" rel="nofollow"> fold the fabric </a> over in half horizontally and vertically, and to find the inner corner to cut and make the neck hole. The last thing she did was add straps to all four corners of the fabric, so that the top could be tied around&nbsp; yourself. "First you take the <a href="https://bellatory.com/news/bra-strap-fashion-hack" rel="nofollow"> straps </a> from the back, both sides, and you tie it around in front of you," she said. "Then you take the straps on the <a href="https://bellatory.com/news/plus-size-woman-shares-bra-hack-so-you-can-wear-front-tie-tops" rel="nofollow"> front and tie </a> them in the back of you." She said that the extra couple of inches of fabric on the width is what allowed the front and back pieces to overlap with no openings on the side. <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> This top seemed super easy to do with or without a sewing machine, too.&nbsp;If the top you want to wear isn't sold in stores, then grab some fabric and make one like this one.
