My sister asked me to do something fun with this Maternity Shirt for her because it had a few spots on it.
I decided to go floral with the design and cut a few designs out with my Cricut and the Storybook Font Cartridge. I'm using Freezer paper for the designs. Once they were cut out, I carefully removed the centers and ironed on the designs on the shirt. Freezer paper sticks beautifully.
I wrapped a towel with a plastic bag and slid the shirt over the bag. This protects the other side of the shirt and gives me a soft surface to use the bleach.
Next, I used a q-tip and some straight bleach to color in the stencils. On a black shirt, it looks orange at first but dries a nice yellowish color.
Let the bleach dry and remove the stcncils. Wash by itself 2 times to set the bleach and you're done.
This is definitely an easy way to save a shirt you thought was going into the trash because of a little stain.
Doesn't she look cute with that baby bump! Another month to go!
Happy Recycling!
