It's also a great say to spice up an old shirt :D
STEP 1:
Choose the figure/writing you want and either print it out or trace it out !
Ps: you can just go ahead and buy the stencil you want to use , but I couldn't find any.
STEP 2 :
Place a cardboard in between the back and front of the shirt your using just to stabilise the shirt and so that the paint doesn't pass through.
STEP 3:
Take the stencil you've made and properly stick it on the shirt with tape.
STEP 4:
Start painting! Use acrylic paint or fabric paint. I Did my research on both and everyone has said they're both great. I could find fabric paint , so I used acrylic for this one :)
The method I painted was using Q tips.. I painted in the Center of the letter leaving out the borders for the end , I painted like I was colouring with a pencil colour but gently.
STEP 5:
Colour the borders .
I did this by dabbing on the Q tip , and not colouring . I held down the paper on the side I was painting so that no paint would go out of the letter , and I dabbed to make sure I was careful and on the line.
FINAL STEP:
Then I waited till it dried out. About an hour or so.
After I was sure it was dry I carefully moved the paper and voila!
Get creative and enjoy this DIY :D
