No Sew – Easy T-Shirt Craft Tutorial

This is probably the easiest DIY project anyone could do to jazz up a plain old t-shirt!

Isn’t my little model cute?

No Sew T-Shirt Craft

3 Things you’ll need:

  • T-Shirt
  • Ribbon
  • Hot Glue Gun

No Sew T-Shirt Craft

1. Cut a tiny hole in the shoulder of the shirt and pull the ribbon through.

2. Grab the other end of the ribbon (the part going through the sleeve) and scrunch up the sleeve and tie in a bow.

3. Trim the bow and add a little hot glue to hold in place. (this also keeps small children from yanking it out)

4. If you want to get even fancier, hot glue ribbon around the bottom edge of the shirt.

Make sure to hand wash your shirt to make it last as long as possible. If things start to fall apart, just glue some more!

    I tried this and learned that the liquid stitch stuff holds better than hot glue. :D Just a tip if some of you wash your shirts and they keep falling apart. Maybe it’s because I used low temp glue?
