T-shirt up-cycling

You might recall a long time ago I messed around with 'redesigning' old t-shirts and we also did it as an activity at Rangers.

Turning a t-shirt that looks like this.

Into something more like this.

and this.

I took the evening into a local Guide unit and ran it for them there.  They really enjoyed it.  It is really easy to do.  They just need an old jersey t-shirt and a pair of sharp scissors.

 With very little guidance they were off, making neckbands, headbands, cutting arms, lacing sides, all manner of their own ideas.

They enjoyed a fashion show at the end of it too.

A really good night.
