Well, we have started the count down (boohoo!) Summer vacation is almost over and we are starting to prepare for another wonderful school year. This is such an easy way to make a very cool t-shirt for back to school and also a good way to kick off the conversations about all things to come.
Materials
- t-shirt (pre-washed)
- masking tape
- fabric paint
- sponge brush
- sheet of paper
1. Make your image outline using masking tape right onto the shirt. (Things with straight lines work best with this technique. Think simple!)
2. Add a sheet of paper or cardboard in between the shirt layers to keep the paint from going through to the other side.
3. Squeeze small amounts of fabric paint onto the shirt and use the sponge brush to fill in your image. You want a very thin layer of paint.
4. Once you are done filling in the image you can pull the tape off and let dry for a few hours.
There you have it! This was so easy and fun to customize for my daughter. I think I may have a new crafty addiction!
