DIY - Scarf From Old T-Shirt


I've seen these all over the internet and finally got around to doing one myself.  I followed the instructions from Tidy Mom.  Most of the instructions I've read say to stretch it out after you cut it, but I think if you don't stretch it out, it makes it look fuller.  I added a flower pin that I purchased from a holiday craft shop.  I think I might add some strips from a black t-shirt and make it black and white.  The cool thing is that you don't have to permanently attach them together so you can add a splash of color here or there and then change it up.  I could add red and green to it for Christmas or do a black, orange and purple one for Halloween and so on.

Christmas Crafts - Pins, Magnets, and Ornaments

Here are more Christmas craft ideas.  I used scrap fabric, scrap ribbon, scrap yarn, popsicle sticks, wooden spoons from ice cream cups, and miscellaneous buttons in some of them (reduce, reuse, recycle!).  The measuring spoons I bought at the dollar store, but you could also find used ones and add another recycling element to them.  Enjoy!
