The only thing that would make this more simple would be putting it in a gift bag (but then I would have to go out to buy one and dealing with some parking lots would make it less than simple.)
This was literally 2 scissor cuts and 2 straight stitches. And if you don't have a sewing machine, this would not be overwhelming to hand stitch.

Next turn your sleeve inside out and press.
Stitch across the bottom leaving a half inch seam. You could stop here if you wanted and turn it right side out.

Then tie with a ribbon around the neck.
It seriously only took me 10 minutes to cut, press, stitch & tie a ribbon.
And don't stop there! Make another one with the other side, even if you don't need it now. You're on a roll, so make it to use for the next occasion.
I also made a gift bag out of the body of the shirt as well, this required more cutting & stitching. I needed a large & flexible gift bag to accommodate several things that are of various shapes that are not easily wrapped.
Love this idea! I'll be sharing it on Twitter & FB!
