Giving An Old Tee Shirt A New Look

Part of the glory of being able to create amazing fun things from items you already have is knowing how to make it.
Heres the deal,There are two parts to this.
Part One: Create an Item Part Two: Give a brief description of how you made it, so we can recycle a little more in this world!
Find A Clean "Old Tee Shirt" and lets turn this old tee shirt into a recyclable beauty. You can use the tee shirt to cover a beautiful homemade journal. You can make a very handy reusable grocery bag from this tee shirt. What about a pretty clutch? Perhaps A Comfy Lap Blanket, the possibilities are endless.
The only requirements is that you make your partner something amazing, something you yourself would love to receive.
This is senders choice, but it must be a RECYCLED Hand Made item by you!
Please ask me any questions if one should arise. No recent one's. Unexplained threes will be booted from this swap as well.



This was an example to the swap ( the inspiration behind it all really) 

Directions: 
Take the desired Tee Shirt and cut it to your liking and Sew it onto a thicker material, I used what i had around the house from an old project. 

Sew on the image to your choosing.

Sew pillow together and there you have it. 

This was so easy to make but it really makes an alternative for keeping that special tee in your life in a whole new life!

Making curtains from old fabric, Spring Cleaning, and Creating a new Swap!

Just finished sewing curtains from scratch. Okay so I don't know what i love more the fact that i spent no money, the fact that i spent no gas in the making of them, or the amazing factor that they look amazing. Just Happy.

This gave me an idea to Spring Clean and as one knows cleaning just trickles down  to area to area and soon enough one has conquered the house. They have a pile of things you don't need or want anymore.

The Ah Ha Moment. Recently I had just Made a pillow for my little cousin that inspired the stack of tee shirts of my bed to be put to good use!
