Make a Cool Scarf From Up Cycled Cut T-shirts

Every mom that I know has a pile of things that their child no longer uses but they can't find it in their heart to throw out.
Let's face it, we can't keep everything....
OR CAN WE?!?
I had a pile of my sons old onesies & t-shirts that I had no clue what I was going to do with.
NOW we both have matching scarves that are adorable & you will too!
Here's how:
Harvest the Strips



- Cut the seam(s) off in one piece and set aside.
- Cut the "meat" of the shirts into 4"-5" strips. You will notice that you will like the way that some fabric stretches one way while another will stretch a different way-play with it!
Save the Seam for the Base of Your Scarf



- The green strip in the picture is the seam that was set aside earlier. Depending on the length of your scarf & the length of the seam, you may have to tie 2 seams together. Don't worry if it looks awkward at first-all the strips will fill in any flaws!
- Take either one strip at a time & tie them over in half (so the seam is in the middle) or you can do multiple strips at a time. One basic knot is good enough to hold 100% cotton, but we know you are an over achiever and will double knot those puppies!
Be the Envy of All the Moms



When they ask "Where did you come up with such an amazing idea?!?"
You say: "My brain"!
Then flip your hair over your shoulder & sip your wine out of that diet coke can!
