DIY Infinity Scarves

Turn old t-shirts (and nightgowns) into the ultimate colorful neck party for those breezy weather conditions! Here, I'm going to show you how to make this scarf in 2 different ways: painted and using an old nightgown!

Note: This project was inspired by a similar project found in the February 2016 issue of Girl's World magazine!

To make your own infinity scarves, you will need the following items:

• old t-shirts / nightgowns
• masking tape
• sharp scissors

To make the painted scarf, you will need: fabric paint, sponge pouncer

Note: I just put the tie-dye kit and a white t-shirt as another idea for an infinity scarf. I didn't really do this one, but this is what you can also do with an old white t-shirt. I will show you how to make a swimsuit cover-up with this idea in a later post.

Tape your t-shirt to your work surface. Using a pair of sharp scissors, carefully cut a straight line below the sleeves. Then, cut another straight line below the hem. What's remaining from the shirt should be a loop of fabric.

Note: This t-shirt was my glow in the dark skull t-shirt, whose result I really didn't like, because it didn't actually glow in the dark as much. So I decided to upcycle this shirt (it's a craft shirt, after all), and make it into this breezy weather staple!

Now, you can add dots to your loop of fabric. Just use your foam pouncer and a favorite color of all-surface, or fabric paint to make dots going all over the fabric. I find it best to place a piece of cardboard inside the loop so that the paint doesn't bleed through. Then, just let dry!

This infinity scarf is made by simply snipping off both sides of an old t-shirt nightgown! It's then ready to wear within 1 minute!

Note: If your nightgown is too long, cut off as much as you need to meet the desired length that you want, so it doesn't look too bulky!

Now, you can choose your favorite way of making your own infinity scarf and enjoy!
