Mum's 'brilliant' tip to make Jubilee t-shirts with simple £1 Tesco item

A mum has been praised for her DIY Jubilee T-shirts which she made using a £1 Tesco item we all have at home. Mums are praising the 'brilliant' budget idea and say it's great for both kids and adults.

With children taking part in various events to mark the Queen's Platinum Jubilee, it can be a tough call finding outfits for the occasion, especially when times are so tough. But mum Melanie Lord's idea has gone down a storm for being so cheap and simple.

All she needed was a pack of Union Jack napkins, which cost £1 a pack in Tesco, and a two of their PE tops, costing £2 for two. Having peeled off the white layer from the underside of the napkin, she then glued it to the top and sealed it with some more PVA glue over the top.
