I was at Crew Cuts this weekend and saw a t-shirt with little pom poms on it. It was not cute. At all. Truly. But it had potential. The idea had potential.
So I came home and figured out how to make a pom pom t-shirt for my kids for Valentine's Day this year that is actually really cute. And really easy. Since I already had all of the parts, it was really cheap too. I used white shirts that were around the house - it seems like we have loads of them. I am also looking at filling the inside of the hearts with glitter paint like Liz's glitter tie shirts.
These only took a few minutes to make once the shirts were clean.
You'll need
1 clean white shirt
Bag of colored pom poms
Large cookie cutter
Sharp pencil
Needle + thread
Step 1 :: Wash and iron the shirt
Step 2 :: Trace around the edges of the cookie cutter with the pencil to leave behind some graphite
Step 3 :: Press cookie cutter onto shirt exactly where you want to place the design. The pencil should leave behind a pattern to trace
Step 4 :: Sew pom poms onto the outline using the needle and thread.
Step 2
Step 4
Red tutu from the Gap! Too cute for Valentine's Day
