I can't get enough of all the cute shirts I want to buy and make!
There are so many cute shirts out there people are selling. I think I could buy and buy and not have enough!
I like to design my own shirts so they say just what I want... but you can buy so many cute svg files to make your shirts.
There's so many options!
I've bought my fair share... but my favorite is to design my own and I make a handful of these each year... I just can't get enough of how fun and easy they are to make.
They make great gifts for grandparents as well!
I've spent years making grandkid t-shirts for my Dad and he loves them! He wears them until they turn into rags and then he informs me its time for a new one :)
Instructions:
#1: pick a t-shirt or sweater
#2: buy or make your template by using a Cricut, Silhouette, or print it on cardstock and cut it out by hand with a X-Acto knife.
I use a really old Cricut and the cheapest removable vinyl to make my templates.
#3: you can use iron on vinyl or my favorite method... craft paint. With paint you have so many color options to choose from or mix to make a custom color. The fabric will absorb some of the paint so you might have to do a couple coats. (make sure to put cardstock or something inside the shirt because the paint will bleed through and could get on the back without something to stop it)
#4: peel off the vinyl and wear... or wash to soften the paint just a bit
It's that easy!
A bit of work, but easy to make!
They always turn out cute...
and the possibilities are endless!
Happy Crafting!
