So, I don't know if you've seen this picture floating around Pinterest, but I decided to give it a try because I had a gray t-shirt with an unfortunate grease stain near the collar. But of course, like always, I didn't exactly follow the directions. Instead of sponge, I tried making stamps out of cardboard, but I quickly gave up on that and just free-handed most of it. So my lines weren't as clean as the original, but I think it still turned out pretty well. :)
The one thing I did follow exactly/pretty closely was their stamping pattern. I just wasn't feeling confident enough to figure out a good design on my own, but if you're artistically talented like that, go for it! Also, my own personal tip is to put cardboard inside the t-shirt to avoid any paint bleeding onto the other side of your shirt. We'll see how it looks once it's all dry. :)
Well, that's all I have for now, since I have to leave for work in 25 minutes. Yikes. I'm not even dressed yet. I do have lots of ideas for projects swirling around in my head though, so there should be some posts coming soon. I went to the fabric store and craft store yesterday, so I'm feeling inspired. You know how it is. ;)
Do you like the aztec/tribal print trend? More specifically, do you like the shirt I made? ;)
