Got too many T-shirts and not enough scarves? Then turn T-shirts into fun scarves with the help of this DIY video from Threadbanger. Megan Nicolay from Generation-T illustrates how to turn ho-hum T-shirts into decorative scarves — no sewing machine required! (via The Oko Box)

Watch to see how Megan transforms a single T-shirt into a fringe scarf — just with a pair of scissors. Then learn how to make two more — one requires a tiny bit of sewing — in this 5-minute video.

Have a lot of T-shirts waiting for upcycling? You might want to check out Generation T’s booksGeneration T: 108 Ways to Transform a T-Shirt and Generation T: Beyond Fashion: 120 New Ways to Transform a T-Shirt — for more ideas.

  1. Love all of them. I think the loop-t-loop was my favorite version. Will look for the books as this was such a great and easy video to follow.
