Wire T-Shirt Scarf

Hi!

For my luck, my husband didn't want this promo T-shirt he got in a Congress, so I snapped it right away..a new  T-shirt for me to play with, yahoo!! Besides, it has a beautiful navy colour!!

Another T-shirt scarf coming...but this time I wanted to give it a little twist..so I used some silver wire to make some rings to embellish it.

I love it!!

What I used:

1. Hubby despised T shirt

2. A glue stick (what for??? you will see!)

3. Cut Plier

4. Fabric Glue

5. Needle and Thread

6. Scissors

7. Silver Plated artisan wire 1.02 mm

Cut the shirt strips , 1 inch each

Now you have lots of strips

Stretch them as in here 

 

Now...to make the rings....glue stick! 

Wrap around...

I removed form the stick after some loops in order to make a knot, then put it back again to finish the loops

Remove  the loops from the glue stick

Another knot

Now to the fabric...get all the strips together

Cut the whole thing in half

Now we have 2 ends

Insert the perfectly round ( wink wink) rings

You can keep them separate in different points of the scarf or join them together, you can play around with them

To join the ends again, one by one with needle and thread

After all of them are tied together again, cut a small rectangle piece of fabric to finish off like below

If you stretch this piece of fabric  you will get a nice round edge

I used just a dab of glue this time, as the ones here, although I love them and use a lot, I think the back it is a bit bulky because I used way too much glue

This  time I nailed it!

Ready!

Isn't it nice? You can use tight to the neck as well..

 Or in one long loop

Me, the model, ah that neck...good thing is going to be hidden...age showing...sad times gals..:0(

PUURFECT for those not so cold days of fall here on the island when a warm neck warms the whole body!

Hope you enjoy!

This has many many possibilities, beads, wire, etc...up next I will use the left over for a bracelet with strips and beads! to come...:0)
