I know that Molly is the luckiest little 14 month old ever...
but I needed for everyone at her daycare to know how lucky she is as well
so I made her something to wear on Thursday
Supplies Needed:
Shirt/Canvas Bag/anything cloth
Freezer Paper
Fabric Paint
Sponge Brush
Iron
Pencil
Scissors
via
Trace your design onto your freezer paper
Cut out the area of the freezer paper that you want to paint
[basically you have created a stencil]
Iron on freezer paper
[shiny side down, make sure all areas are secured very well {to avoid any bleeding onto the shirt}]
Apply paint liberally
[I would recommend putting a piece of cardboard or a magazine in between the middle of the shirt/tote bag/ect so the paint doesn't bleed through to the back]
Wait for the paint to drive
And pull back the freezer paper
Remove all of the freezer paper
I used puffy paint for the heart [yes, it totally brought me back to my sorority days, making shirts for every occasion possible!]
I applied the glitter to the shamrock with fabric glue for glitter
The hardest part of this whole project was waiting for the glitter to dry to see the final project
To pass the time I made a bow to match and then removed the excess glitter
The funniest part of this entire project was when Justin brought up a load of clean laundry that Molly's shirt happened to be washed in
he came up with the laundry and said
well the load is done but we have one slight problem....
I think I shrunk a shirt - ha!
Were not used to things this small being in our laundry
Happy Crafting!
