- 1). Think up a design for your T-shirt that incorporates Earth Day-themed words or images like "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" or "Live Green." Trees and the recycling symbol are images often associated with Earth Day.
Draw the design pieces on your old clothing, tablecloths, curtains, sheets and other fabric you have around the house. - 2). Cut the pieces out and pin them to your T-shirt, along with any other embellishments. Try the shirt on in front of a mirror to make sure you like the design.
Old jewelry, buttons, patches and badges can be reused to make eco-friendly embellishments. - 3). Sew the fabric pieces onto your T-shirt, making sure to only sew through one side of the shirt. Your eco-friendly Earth Day shirt is ready to wear.
