Simple Friendship Bracelets from Old T-Shirts

Are the kids bored yet? Getting on your nerves? Then it's time to get those little hands busy. Instead of tweeting and playing video games, have them make friendship bracelets instead!

For a new twist on this old craft, use old T0shirts! I was inspired by this post to try using T-shirt scraps.

Starting at the bottom of the shirt, cut off the hem. Then cut strips (loops) off the bottom of the shirt - about 3/4" wide. Cut the loop so that you have a strip. Give a tug on the strip and it will curl in slightly.

When you have three strips, safety pin them together, pin it on your shoe or a chair cushion and simply braid. Tie off the ends. Mix and match colors for interesting effects. Make them for and share with friends!
