What you'll need:
- A big adult T-shirt ( If you use a small T-shirt you will end up with a very small handbag)
- Scissors
How to do it:
- Lay your tshirt flat, cut off the neck band, the bottom seam and the sleeves
- Cut from the bottom up about 5″-8″ long, 3/4″ wide strips all the way across the width of the shirt (cut depending on the variation of fringe you want
- Pull each of the strips down to turn them into little noodle looking things
- Tie the matching front and back strips together in double knots. Tie all.
- Now you want to cut the neck hole of the shirt into a deeper scoop.
- Cut the top of the shoulders so that you now have 4 straps to work with.
- Tie the left front shoulder to the right front shoulder. Do the same for the back.
- You now have a tote bag! Make any additional cuts or changes to the scoop of the “neck” until you are satisfied with the look of your bag.
Enjoy!
