Appliquéd Shirt Cuff Pouches
I don’t know why, but I love projects with up-cycled men’s shirts. And I recently came across a tutorial on Pinterest for some adorable little pouches made from the cuff of a shirt. Aren’t these super-cute?

On that same day, Lola lost her first tooth, which, of course, was a big event around our house.
A Tooth Fairy Pouch is the perfect size to hold a little tooth securely under a pillow so that the Tooth Fairy can be sure to find it and leave a little surprise!
Here’s how it all works, illustrated by Lola herself:
Try Heat ‘n Bond with fabric to make a great iron-on letter! (Find it here via my affiliate link.)
Make these with your kids for a great summer craft. And if you’re looking for more Men’s Shirt projects, click on the links below!

That is an adorable project, Julie! I love that it could be used for so many things. You've given me a great idea to use this for my nephews for Christmas to hold crayons.

What a great idea – I have two grandsons who have yet to lose a tooth, so I can have these ready before they do. So easy – that's my style too!

Julie- I have not seen these anywhere. What is really funny is that MyHero does not like long sleeved shirts..and my son just gave him several that he wants ne to cut the sleeves off of….what a perfect use for them! Thanks so much- xo Diana

This is such a cute idea! They would make great gift card holders, too. Thanks for sharing, Jean

Love this idea! Thanks for the inspiration. I featured your project as my Craft of the Week on Monday and then showed everyone what you can do with the rest of the shirt.
