I made some t-shirts recently and they were so much fun!<\/p>\n

As part of a going away present for Geneva and Co. I made them all Brooklyn shirts (ya know, in case they forgot where they moved from or also to let those Maine people know they are tough!) I pulled out the ColorArtz again (first time here<\/a> and then here<\/a>). I love using it and plan to use it more often (I just bought a big can of air too!). I learned my lesson the 2 previous times and really taped around the stencil (I used freezer paper) and used plenty of scrap paper. I did not get any overspray. I used a different color for each person. I even made one for Lennox but it is a bit big for her right now. I had grand ideas of putting a few images on the shirts but I was afraid it would be overkill so just kept it simple instead.

\nThe gray one is for Layne. I couldn’t find a white pocketless T.

I also made a t-shirt for Nico’s birthday and finally put the t-shirt vinyl to good use. I bought a sample kit from Craft Vinyl <\/a>and I love it! So easy to work with and I just noticed that he now has glitter and glow in the dark t-shirt vinyl! Fun! When I first bought it, I had a question and he had me call him on his 800 number to help me out. He is super nice!<\/p>\n

\nTraced out the letters and cut them out.

\nI ironed them on and once cooled, peeled off the protective layer. It’s really easy to get off.

\nNico likes robots so I stenciled a robot on the bottom. I had in mind to try out the new Earth Safe Finishes kit<\/a> for the stencil but when I mixed it up, it seemed too watery to hold up so opted to go with the gocco fabric paint (tried and tested!<\/a>). I plan on doing some tests with the Earth Safe Finishes for another post. I did use the Tackifier included in the kit to hold down the stencil. That worked really well and much better than using the stencil spray. \"nicoshirtdonesienna.jpg\"<\/p>\n

You can see Phoenix and Nico wearing their shirts in my Hugs<\/a> post.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
