Another Trashy Success: t-shirt finds home

Last week, after quickly becoming obsessed with Johnny Vegas Originals scarves, I DID in fact decide to cut up my beloved t-shirt and make a scarf...it was SIMPLE!

How'd you do it, Rachel?
I found a DIY video. I wasn't a HUGE fan of it, but it worked for what I needed. I skipped over a lot of it. If you want to make your very own t-shirt scarf, now's the time to learn.

T-Shirt's new home
My t-shirt found a new home. Around my neck. I showed it to my brother and said, "I made a t-shirt scarf! Isn't it cool?!" His response, "It looks like a t-shirt."

Trashy Successes: T-Shirt scarf necklaces

As I fold my two week overdue laundry, I fumble with my hole-in-the-armpit long-sleeved t-shirt that I don't think I will EVER throw away. It is from a camp I worked at for 8 summers and I LOVE it. Each time I wear it, the hole grows bigger. It doesn't keep me warm. It doesn't really do much for me. But I just like wearing it to bed.

A couple weeks ago I saw a scarf on a friend that I thought was so cool. It was made from t-shirts. We've all seen t-shirt quilts, but have you ever seen a t-shirt scarf? Or a t-shirt scarf necklace?

A few designs I like:

True Rebel Clothing

Johnny Vegas Originals

So now, I ask myself the question...what should I do with MY t-shirt? What do you think?
