Cost: $5
- 1 large t-shirt
- scissors
- pencil
- felt sheets for embellishments
- hot glue gun
On the back of the shirt, trace a straight line from the edge of the collar to the bottom of the shirt on a diagonal.
Cut along the lines, but don't cut the collar - this will go around the neck to hold the cape on. Once you get to the collar, just cut along the seam line. Now you have a cape made from the backside of the t-shirt. You can save the front fabric if you want to make a mask.
Cut out your superhero "logo" from the pieces of felt.
Hot glue the pieces onto the back of the cape.
...and you're done!
