Make a Recycled T-shirt Necklace

Britt at Cucumbersome did a fantastic tutorial on how to make necklaces made from recycled t-shirts and inspired by necklaces found at Urban Outfitters. You can make a necklace in as few as five minutes. What a great use for t-shirts that are bound for the thrift store! Britt wrote a wonderful tutorial on how to make them, including all the things she learned while making her three sample necklaces. [click here for full tutorial] [via luvinthemommyhood]
You can customize these however you like – use as few or as many strands as you want, add beads, buttons, studs, or other embellishment. Use any color of t-shirt, add paint (Britt says to paint the inside of the shirt because the t-shirt tubes roll so the inside is showing on the outside).
Project Estimate:
- T-shirt, on hand or $1
- Rotary cutter & mat, on hand
Total: FREE or $1
