My mama use to make shirts for me all the time when I was growing up! Sometimes she would let me help and I would make some really cool stuff!! It's time to pass on the memory! I've even found a couple fun and easy recipes for homemade fabric paint so you don't have to spend alot of $money$ to make some great fashion! The recipes are posted at the bottom

What are you waiting on? Lets Get Started!!

Lets turn a plain T-shirt into your own simple work of art.

 (You don't have to use a T-shirt, you can use any type of fabric you like. For example-> hats, pants, jackets, white shoes, shoe strings etc.)

This would also be a great idea for a project done at a Craft or Art themed Party! You can get plain shirts cheap at thrift stores or even The Dollar Store and the paint recipes below are very cheap!

First off ~~>

You will need~~>

• A plain T-shirt (Or any other type of fabric you choose)
• Pencil
• Cardboard
• Clothespins or large paper clips
• Fabric paint or Home-made Paint (Recipes at bottom)

May we began.....

1. Place the cardboard inside the T-shirt and Clip it in place with the clothespins or paper clips
2. With your pencil, draw a picture on the shirt
3. Use the fabric paint to add color to your drawing. You can simply paint over the outline or/and color it in.

If you would like, you can make a design instead of a picture.

For example, you can use shapes and lines in different colors to make a fun, modern pattern.
