STEP FIVE: Cut this two inch long strips from the remaining shirt. Feeling extra festive? T Shirt Shrug. Waiting. Here's a picture of me waiting in the Radcliffe library for my date with a boy named J.D. His short stories are brilliant and have been published in The New Yorker, but I fear, entre nous, that he may be a little too misanthropic for me. Speaking of fiction, don't you love the outfit? You can make a giant flower like this white one by cutting up old t-shirts. Look! Cut a strip of t-shirt fabric, stitch down the middle, gather, fold in half lengthwise, and roll it up. Blob some fabric glue on the back and stick it to a circle of fabric. Wear them on a date or stick them in a vase! DIY – Pretty things to make out of old t-shirts! {Kaleidoscope}
Hi, my name is Amanda and I am excited to have been asked by the birthday girl Jess to help celebrate Epheriell Designs’s 3rd birthday. Wow, Jess! Congratulations on making it through 3 years of the highs and lows, stresses and euphoric moments of running a small creative business. Good on you for being brave enough to do what you have needed to do in order to make it a success!
The internet is an amazing tool for creatives and crafters alike. Not only is it a great tool for selling your creations, it is also a treasure trove of inspiration. Sites like Pinterest and blogs have opened up a whole world of ideas, tutorials and new things to try. If you are anything like me, you see amazing creations, by very clever crafters and think to yourself “It looks amazing, but I could never do that“. Recently though, I have noticed a crafting trend that I am very excited about! Necklaces [top image from Etsy] The second image uses scraps of fabric, but you could easily use strips of T-Shirt. Re-purposing: Tshirts into 5-strand-braided-headbands. I was walking through Target a few weeks ago and noticed this little knit fabric headband that was not just braided together…….but woven. I decided they were charging way too much for something that could be made with t-shirt scraps. And that means free.
So there you have it. A nice and easy project to give my bad-hair-day head some love. (Or you may need one for working out. Or washing your face. I kinda love it on my little girl . She always has little hair fly-aways that get into her face…….and this helps with that problem. It even works great with her hair down…..and keeps that hair tucked behind her ears. And yep, good for me too. Thanks little t-shirt scraps. Want to make your own? First, find some old t-shirts. Then, cut your fabric into long strips. Next, stack your 5 strips on top of each other and sew together at one end. Now, pull on each strip of fabric so that they kind of curl on the edges. But let me explain a little better. First, you’ll work on the left side. And that’s it.
