This year I wanted to give my friends Christmas gifts that fitted under three requirements:
- Personal
- Useful
Custom T-shirts fit under all three requirements (kind of: the t-shirts are bought).
This is how to make one:
You will need -
- a T-Shirt
Gem Stone glue |
- Paper
Dye + ingredients needed on the packet (normally salt is also also needed) |
- A Bin Lid
- Most importantly, creativity
Instructions:
Wishing you a Merry Christmas, I hope you like the T-Shirts I designed.
Write your thoughts in the comment section.
Step 1 - Design It is ideal that you draw in pencil what you are going to draw in glue |
Step 2 - Soak T-Shirt in water Squeeze out any excess water in T-Shirt |
Step 3 - Put wet T-Shirt on a flat bin lid |
Step 4 - Drawing Draw / Write design using a washable glue before T-shirt dries completely. |
Step 5 - Drying Dry T-Shirts in the Sun until the glue is clear or more than 80% is clear. |
Step 6 - Dying Dye T-Shirt according to the instructions on the packet. You may also want to tie-dye the back of the T-Shirt. |
When T-Shirt is desired colour, wash in soapy water until no excess dye comes out. |
Step 7 - Dry (again) Dry T-Shirt after washing. The T-Shirt above is for one of my friends who loves Japanese culture. |
The tie-dye looks great on the back of the T-shirt |
Quotes or verses from the Bible look good on T-Shirts. |
Step 8 - Wrapping Give present to your friend or family member and see the smile on their face. :) |
