How to DIY Drawstring T-shirt Backpack

This is an easy DIY Re-purposing project to recycle unwanted T-shirts or tank tops or even fabric scraps. You’ll need thick rope, in the color of your choice, and stitching done on the contour of the tshirt like shown in the picture! If you have a printed t-shirt, the effect is lovelier! You can make these for your kids to carry to preschool or even for the school lunch. You can make these for the park play duty or for picnics, either way they look pretty are really easy to do once you get the hang of it!
