DIY: Sparkly, striped sweatshirt

I've been wanting to make a sparkly, striped sweatshirt from an old sweatshirt I don't wear anymore. So, finally, I did.

1 white sweatshirt
1 bottle Tulip glitter fabric spray paint
1 roll painter's tape

Make sure you put something in between the sweatshirt so the paint doesn't bleed through. I used cookie sheets because I was in the kitchen...and because I'm a half-way crafter when I'm tired. And I refuse to buy a t-shirt form made out of cardboard. 
 1. Tape off the design you want.
 2. Tape all the way to the surface underneath so your shirt doesn't move.
 3. Spray. Spray. Spray and use your finger to spread it around. You could use a brush. I used my finger. I'm a half-way crafter when I'm tired top part about cookie sheets.
 4. Let dry all the way.
 5. Pop into the dryer to set the paint.
 6. Wear and enjoy. I put a t-shirt underneath and a faux fur vest on top.
