Geesh! The Fourth of July is right around the corner! How time flies! I wanted to share a quick and easy recycled T shirt Fourth of July bunting sponsored by Silhouette that I made with the Silhouette Studio® Designer Edition software. You can make this in minutes; just in time for the 4th. More importantly, you can purchase the software on sale from now until July 10th with the promo code: DIYINSPIRED! You’re welcome!
Materials:
- Silhouette CAMEO® or Silhouette Portrait™
- Silhouette Studio® Designer Edition software
- Scrapbook paper in patriotic colors and/or patterns
- An old T Shirt
- Spray Starch
- Iron and ironing board
- Glue
- Ribbon
- Hot Glue and glue gun
What is great about the Silhouette Studio® Designer Edition software is that there is a built in ruler and guidelines for precise alignment and drawing. Because of this, I was able to easily make these cut outs.
Silhouette Studio® Designer Edition contains all the same functionality as Silhouette Studio® plus the following designer features:
- Ability to open, manipulate, and cut .svg files
- Rhinestone tools to convert designs into rhinestone templates and create your own rhinestone designs
- Sketch tools to convert designs into several styles of sketchable art
- Creative knife tools to allow you to clip designs using different patterns
- Enhanced eraser set to modify designs with more precision
Next, I made a fabric bunting out of an old T shirt. You can check out the full tutorial for how to make it. It turned out great and was very quick and simple to do!
Just in case, the promo code is DIYINSPIRED to receive a discount from now until July 12th!

I love my Silhouette Cameo! I just got it a few months ago. I’ve only used it on one project, but it was amazingly easy to use, and I love that I can now create my own cutting patterns. It’s like a printer that cuts. Awesome.
Now I sound like a plant for Silhouette. But really, I’m your brother. You saw me purchase it on Amazon (and then do a little dance).
LOL! Well, now you can get the Silhouette discounts with the DIY Inspired promo codes!! Woo hoo!
What a fun idea! And it could totally be customized for other holidays and events. Thanks!
Thanks Pattie! I think I’m going to make another one for my daughter’s birthday coming up next month! 🙂
I love this idea. I need to start using my Silohette again!
Jill, Yes you do!!! 😉
I love this bunting Dinah! I’m totally coveting the Silhouette!
Thank you, Sharon!
I love that you used an old tee!
You know me and repurposing… or am I just cheap? Yeah…. I’m cheap… 😉
