D-I-Y T-Shirt Bracelets

Before you throw away your old clothing, WAIT! You can reuse items that no longer fit to create a brand new accessory. Here’s how to transform your boring old t-shirts into a new style, while being environmentally friendly at the same time!

MATERIALS:

• Old Clothes (t-shirts work best)

• Bangle bracelets (any material, metal or plastic both work fine)

• Hot glue gun

• Scissors

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Take your scissors and cut your old clothes into long strips. (at least 10-12 inches long).
   

2. Make sure each of the strips are about the same length.
   

3. Take 3 strips and braid them together. Braiding them together makes them stronger and thicker.

4. Wrap the braided strips around the bangle.

5. Using a hot glue gun, glue the braided strips to the bangle. This is so the braided strips won’t come off easily. Be careful, as the glue gun is very hot.

6. Let the bracelet cool for a few minutes and you’re done!

You’re now ready to show off your new style.
