Knotted Headband with tshirt yarn

I even have a quick video on how to form the knot. I think we've all seen that fun Knotted Headband by You Seriously Made That - - here's a refresher: Cami did a great job and I followed her tutorial for the "knot" part of the headband. So go there for that. But instead of crocheting long strands, I used Tshirt Yarn. If you're wondering how to make t-shirt yarn, just cut strips from an old tshirt (mine were maybe 3/4 in wide) and then pull on them til they turn in on themselves. Want to see my video tutorial on how to make this knot??

How To: DIY Pom Poms

I wish I could say that I brainstormed these beautiful pom poms on my own, but I actually got the idea from a wedding blog. OnceWed.com features a DIY Wedding Pom Pom tutorial that I replicated (along with their color scheme - isn't it gorgeous and perfect for a little girl's room?). Since their instructions were a bit vague, I had to do a practice run and figure out some more specific details (size of lantern, size of circle cut outs, etc) on my own. Materials needed: paper lanterns (I used one 9" and two 6" lanterns)2-3 yards of fabric per lantern (I used 3yd for 9" and 2yd for 6")glue gunribbona long weekend Before I started, I printed out 3" and 4" circles and traced them onto cardboard to cut out and use as my tracing template.

With the 4" circles I was able to get 100 circles per yard and used a full 3 yards. Once traced, I cut out all the circles. Sew.Craft.Create.: drinkin' the koolaid... From a 1960's biology book.

D.I.Y: Recycled T-Shirt Scarf // Gettin' Crafty!

Find two t-shirts of different colors that go well together. 2} Lay the shirt flat on the table or floor. 3} Cut 1 1/2 inch strips, remove the hemmed edges. Cut them as long as possible; I went from the bottom of the front of the shirt all the way to the end of the back on some pieces. 4} Cut off the sleeves of the shirt and save them for the end. 5} Organize the strips by length and gently pull on them. 6} NOW GET CREATIVE! 7} Tie together, trim ends, and wrap with the excess sleeve fabric you saved.
