Revisit your past memories of carefree days spent in the summer and tie-dye a t-shirt for some old-school fun! Be mindful, though, as you’ll be dealing with dye so it might get messy. Begin by prewashing a plain white shirt then use elastic bands to design spirals, bullseyes, or crumples. To make this project easier on yourself grab an all-inclusive tie-dye kit that will provide everything needed to recreate that classic look.
2. Iron-On Patches

3. No-Sew Infinity Scarf
Infinity scarves are wonderful for both you and your children, but they also serve as one-of-a-kind presents! Just like our other projects, these snuggly wraps don’t call for any sewing talents – simply make them with ease!
All you need to make the scarf is:
- Unleash your creativity with two yards of fabric! Whether it’s cotton, jersey, flannel or fleece—the possibilities are endless.
- iron-on adhesive tape
- iron
- sharp scissors or rotary cutter
This is a simple and affordable project. Two yards of fabric will make two scarves, so why not keep one for yourself and give the other away as an incredible present?
4. Multi-Strand T-Shirt Necklace
We all have some t-shirts that are in need of a makeover. Rather than getting rid of them, why not transform these shirts into one-of-a-kind necklaces? The best part is, it only takes about 10 minutes with minimal crafting skills required! You just pick the type and design you want from Pinterest (you can go simple or more elaborate) then grab your old tees to get started. And voila – a quick and easy way to create something truly special.
