Hi, guys! You can barely call this a tutorial, but since I've been on a fabric paint crush lately, I thought I'd share this t-shirt experiment with you. It's one of those I-have-10-minutes-to-make-something kind of things. It's super simple and very fast, so if you have a t-shirt you'd like to update, give it a try.
I found this t-shirt at home and wasn't too excited about it. I knew it needed a little face-lift. I did this makeover in July on a day I really needed a change from cutting out and clueing together wedding decor. But, I didn't want to spare too much precious time doing something non-wedding-related, so I thought I'd play around with my new love of fabric paint for 15 minutes. This is what I did:
All you need is some fabric paint in your color of choice and an old wine cork as a stamp for the dots. The process itself was super simple. Simply lay out your t-shirt and place a plastic bag inside, so that the paint won't run through to the backside. And, dot away! I did my dots in a completely random pattern, but you could use a ruler to mark the place of the dots with small dots first to space them evenly.
Although I wouldn't call this my favorite t-shirt, I do like it a lot more now. I'm thinking about covering the whole t-shirt in dots. What do you think? Cover it in dots, or leave as is? Let me know in the comments!

Very nice idea! Next time try using potato, it leave a cute print too :)
ReplyDeleteYes, I thought about using a potato, but since I was going to do a simple dotted print, the wine work was simply easier, and also left a print of its own :)
DeleteLove this!
