How-To Make A T-shirt Tote-Bag

Step 1: Find a T-shirt and decide what size tote to make. You will need a sewing machine (or needle and thread), and scissors















Step 2: Once the size of your tote is decided, cut the bottom of the shirt straight across at desired length.














Step 3: Cut both sleeves off at the seams.














Step 4: Cut the neck out. This will be the opening of your tote so the size of the "scoop" should be large enough to stuff items into.















Step 5: Turn the t-shirt inside out and stitch up the bottom of the shirt and and the edges of the arms and neck.














Step 6: Embellish the t-shirt with other designs or just show off the original art of the t-shirts.
