so, yesterday i decided to use a bit of my time to get a lil' crafty. i love 'crafting,' i just rarely make or take the time for it. but i saw this cute little 'project' and i decided that it was a must do. i snapped some picture throughout the progress to share with you as well as some directions so that if you are looking for something fun and easy to do that doesn't take up a lot of time you could try it as well. without further ado let the tutorial fun being.
{How to Make a Ringlet T-Shirt Scarf}
What you will need: 4 tshirts & Scissors (yep, that's it)
this little ringlet t-shirt scarf is so fun and so easy to make! easy for me= no sewing involved. as i mentioned earlier it will take you no time you will have it completed by the time you watch your favorite show on t.v.
step one: gather up you tee's (four of them)- they can be differen't colors or all the same, whatever you prefer...there is no wrong combination. grab those scissors and you're ready to begin!
step two: once you have found your tshirts of choice begin by cutting them hem of each shirt off and lay to the side- we'll use them later.step three: continue by cutting the shirt into strips about 3/4" wide. I cut 8 strips from each shirt for a total of thirty two. (if you're like me and can't cut a straight line, no worries- from experience it won't hinder the 'cute-ness' of the scarf.)
step four: give the loops a nice BIG stretch.
step five: wrap them around your hand.step six:.... thirty-one more times :)
step seven: now take those hems that you previously laid aside and cut them into 5" long strips- use those to tie all your loops together into one long chain.
step eight: you're done....you now have a cute and comfy t-shirt scarf! :)

some great ideas to consider for your t-shirt scarf...for the kiddos (of course) how cute would they be wearing it, boys or girls (thats my next one). do you have a favorite team? use those colors and wear them to games or in support of when you watch them from the comfort of your own home. solid colors with a different color hem (eg. b&w). baby clothes you can't part with but they are taking up too much space, this is a great way to preserve those and wear them with you anytime you please. the possibilities are endless. have fun and have a great day!









This is too freakin' cute! I'm going to have to try this soon....always looking for a good scarf!
