These darling t-shirt bracelets are a fun way to up-cycle old shirts and make fun jewelry in the process!

I have introduced you to Megan before … and I have been so impressed with her creativity and frugality that I am excited to welcome her back with this wonderful share:

Hello She Saved Readers!

I love finding new ways to use old materials and household items and I love fashion! These bohemian inspired Tee Shirt Bracelets fill both needs and are super easy to make!
 
Supplies Needed:
  • Old T-shirts (various colors or patterns)
  • Scissors
  • Needle and thread or sewing machine
Instructions:
  1. Cut a strip from an old t-shirt approximately 10″  x  ½”
  2. Repeat step 1 with two different t-shirts in varying colors
  3. Roll the t-shirt strips between your fingers so that they are thin
  4. Sew together the ends of 3 different colored t-shirt strands
  5. Braid the strands into a traditional 3 strand braid
  6. Sew together the ends at the bottom of the braid
  7. Sew the bottom and top portions together to create your bracelet. Note: You could also use more traditional jewelry clasps for a more finished look.
This is a great project to do with school aged children to teach frugality and to work on dexterity skills while enjoying some quality family time!
