Craft Month: New Life into Old T-Shirts

March 22, 2009 by Cindy Leave a Comment

I have a million T-shirts. Shocking, I know… the collection just grows and grows, and it’s so hard to part with them… the little reminders of events I attended, projects I volunteered for, organizations I was a part of, and those clever saying ones I am probably to old to be wearing out in public πŸ˜› Even though I’m not wearing 99% of them anymore, it’s just so hard to part with them…
SO here are some great ideas of things-to-do-with-Tshirts to breathe some new life into them!

Here are step by step instructions (with a TON of pictures) to make an AWESOME brimmed cap out of T shirt… custom fit for your head πŸ˜€

Urban Outfitters sells the “T shirt Frames” for like $20, but you can get the same look with an acrylic frame and some tape for a couple bucks. Here’s how.

T Shirt Quilt
Making a quilt out of all my college/APO t-shirts is definitely on my craft to-do list… I have a basic diagram, but it seems like its going to be a monster of a task, but the result will something I can cherish for a long time! Here are some basic instructions (Google will give you a million more).

I have also seen cute baby onesies and tote bags made out of shirts. With a little bit of interfacing, you can turn those shirts into just about anything πŸ™‚
