Craft it :: Big Sibling T-Shirts, Part 2


After looking through local stores and online for a cute t-shirt for my kids to wear to the hospital, I decided to just make my own.  For some reason, Big Brother/ Big Sister shirts get a little hokey.  They aren't the babies - they don't need babies on their shirts.

And I am obsessed with freezer paper stencils - so it seemed easy enough.  Since I have FOUR days until my due date, I'm just hanging out waiting for the baby.  I have lots of time on my hands.


You'll need
Plain t-shirt
Stencil
X-acto knife
Freezer paper
Iron
Fabric Paint
Sponge Brushes


Step 1 :: Print out a stencil pattern and trace onto freezer paper.
Step 2 :: Cut out stencil from freezer paper using x-acto knife
Step 3 :: Iron freezer paper onto t-shirt using high heat and low steam
Step 4 :: Apply paint to t-shirt using sponge brushes.  
Step 5 :: Set paint according to package instructions.
