T-shirt Lamp Shade!

I just finished another fun "recycling" craft. This is an old, stained lamp shade and old men's t-shirts (minus the stained armpits:). Here are the step by step instructions!

Begin by tracing circles on your old t-t-shirts. I used about 3 inch round circles. The circles don't have to be perfect.

Then cut out your circles. Your stack will look large but you will be cutting more I'm sure! I used 5 entire men's XL shirts!

After you cut the circles you will need to fold them in half 3 times like in the pictures below.

Then using a hot glue gun glue the tip of each circle to the shade until you have covered the entire shade.

After that you will need to "fluff" each of the circles to finish off your amazing new shade!
