I thought I would share with you some ideas for those shirts you may be parting with…
My husband has had a great sort out, so I have lots of shirts for recycling:)
Recycled Shirt Ideas:
I started with making some PE Kit Drawstring bags for restocking my Etsy shop. There are lots of tutorials available on the internet for making drawstring bags, but I did particularly like one which suggested strengthening the corners of the base of the bag. It’s worth reading a few as different tutorials give different perspectives:)
But I was then left with a sizeable pile of fabric, so I have had a go at making children’s party bags, with boys in mind…
There are of course lots of other ideas available on the internet, here are some of my favourites:)
Sadly my husband prefers short-sleeved shirts!!
To purchase a PE Kit bag, or children’s bag visit my Etsy Shop.
Hi, just in case pingbacks don’t work, I have nominated you for an award – see today’s post xx I love your ideas for shirts x
That is so kind, and very exciting:) Thank you…. I am so new at blogging that I am not sure how awards work, does that mean I have the award or someone else decides?!!!

The award is yours, and all you have to do is nominate the latest 9 commenters on your blog. And you can place the award picture in your sidebar too like I have done xx
Ooh, I’d love that pile of shirts to refashion. Your drawstring bag looks great and I love the boy’s party bag.
The shirt sort out had been in the offing for a couple of years!! Thanks for your feedback. I’m thinking of making some of your denim fabric baskets… having a big sort out of studio:)
