DIY 4th July Shirt

Today craft is brought to you by the 4th of July holiday.

Our schedule was tight today. However, we manged to have time for the girls to craft. Normally, every year we do some form of a paper craft. the crafts are always cute, but afterwards, it tears up and then gets thrown away. This year we wanted to do something different so we decided to decorate shirts for the 4th. Making and decorating clothing to wear has become one of the girls favorite crafts to do.

You will need:

A white t-shirt
Red fabric paint
Blue fabric paint
Masking tape
Card board
Paintbrush
Star stickers

First put the piece of card board inside the shirt. This is to prevent the paint from seeping through to the back side.

Lay down the masking tape onto the shirt into the design of your liking.

Place the stars wherever you would like them to be on your shirt.

      

Now we are ready to paint!

Paint over the stars and on the parts of the shirt that are not taped.

  

You will have to paint slowly so that you don’t pull up you stars or mess up your lines.

When you are done painting. Let it dry!

Once your paint is dry, carefully pull off the stickers and tape.

 

Check back tomorrow for the finished product…..
