As my roommate went through her old clothes this week, she could not let go of one particular shirt. She loved the graphic, but she had outgrown the shirt. A previous post, Reader Tip: T-Shirt as Art, came to mind and I made this adorable wall art for her! If you have old t-shirts that you can no longer wear, but want to keep, this is the perfect project for you!
What You Will Need:
An old t-shirt
Scissors
A picture frame. Instead of buying a new frame, visit your local thrift stores or garage sales! You can find some awesome frames for really great prices!
How To Do It:
Lay out your t-shirt and place the glass from your picture frame over the part of the graphic you would like to cut. If you use a larger frame, you could use the entire graphic. However, we had a smaller frame so we only used part of the graphic.
Cut that portion of the graphic out. It doesn’t have to be perfect (as you can tell).
Place your t-shirt inside your frame and then put your frame back together.
Wasn’t that easy? This is such a simple project and is perfect for that t-shirt that holds too many memories to donate or give away! This would even be cute for children’s clothes! For example, if your son was on a sports team, you could use his old sports t-shirts to decorate his room. What t-shirts would you use?
