Easy Peasy Home Made T-Shirts

Easy Peasy Homemade T-Shirts...
   Every year I buy the kids Valentines Day shirts from the store.  It adds up.  This year I was fretting because as I have a few million times mentioned we are going to Disney World/ Florida this March, and money is SUPER tight.  I decided to do the Canada Day stencil idea that I do for Canada Day every year.

 It is so super easy and honestly looks great.

                                   I used a floor tile, which you can buy at the dollar store.  

                                   I then traced the shape of a heart and cut it with scissors.

       Next I hot glued an old used ribbon bobbin onto the the bottom of the floor tile (paper side).

                         I then mixed together fabric medium and acrylic craft paint in the ratio

                                                that the fabric medium bottle suggested.

           I put a piece of cereal box in the T-shirt to prevent the paint bleeding to the back side.

                                        God help me, I let the kids each do their own shirt!

                        We painted the paint onto the heart, fairly thickly with a sponge brush.

                                                      

Grace made patterns on hers with a Q-tip.

                               Then we centered the heart onto the T-shirt and pressed it down.

      Voila, Valentines T-shirts that were super fun to make, look great and cost sooooo much less!
