Two Headbands, One Scarf - TShirt Craft

Inspired by a post on Good Girl Gone Green I ran to my shirt drawer and grabbed an old shirt that I haven't worn in 6 years, a pair of scissors and went to town :D

It was so easy!  The entire project took less than 5 minutes, and is a great green way to reuse your old clothes.

Take your shirt, take your scissors, and cut the top section off your shirt (its okay if its not straight!)

And voila!  You have a scarf!  It really is that easy.  I ended up cutting off the bottom hem as well - which I turned into a headband for myself, and the top part transformed itself into a headband for my youngest daughter.

So amazingly easy - the only hard part?  Stealing the scarf back from my 5 year old who has claimed it as her own.

Next on my list of must makes?  The Produce Bags!!!

Huge thank you to Good Girl Gone Green for opening my eyes to all these amazing crafts!

Red Gold!

Tomorrow is the Multi-cultural luncheon at Tala's school.  The kids were asked to bring something traditional to their family to share with the class.  Being Gitxsan, Salmon is definitely a traditional food for our people.  My Dad came through with 2 different types of smoked salmon.  The kids at school tomorrow will have a feast fit for Gitxsan Royalty!

Every night before bed the girls and I have a dance party!  Its a great way to wind down, and let the stresses of the melt around.  We like to shake our sillies out.  Tonight we did the Macarena and the girls were so cute I had to take a picture.
