Halloween can be such a fun time of year with dressing up. But sometimes you go into the shops and it’s all the same. If you fancied something different, or are on a budget why not make your own<\/p>\n

HALLOWEEN T-SHIRT<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Home<\/a><\/p>\n

As previously mentioned I have been doing Adult Education Classes in  Halloween Craft<\/strong> one and this is where this idea comes from – you can visit the tutor (Amanda)’s webpage here<\/a>. The one shown has been made by me at the class but it so easy to do with children that I thought I would share it here now.<\/p>\n

You can either start by deciding on what colour t-shirt you will use or look through the various designs online or create your own and then decide on the colour t-shirt to use.<\/p>\n

\"boo\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After you have decided on your design draw it on to something that is thick enough to stop the paint running underneath it and cut it out.<\/p>\n

\"paint_boo\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Secure with masking tape to prevent it slipping and paint with fabric paints (or you can use textile pens as below).<\/p>\n

\"painted_boo\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I cut out the Boo and attach the parts I cut out so that the paint on the t-shirt was like the Boo I had drawn.<\/p>\n

Make sure that how you are cutting it is how it will appear (and not a mirror image).<\/p>\n

Test it on some fabric – also a good test to make sure that the paint does not run.<\/p>\n

\"boo_tshirt\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then remove the template carefully and check the edges haven’t run. Touch up if need be.<\/p>\n

\"boo_boo\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I thought I would use the “other” Boo to make an orange one and therefore it would say “Boo Boo” (as in a mistake).<\/p>\n

\"ghost_boo_tshirt\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I then drew around a Ghost template using textile pens. Making it go behind the letters at the top and giving the letters at the bottom a see-through appearance.<\/p>\n

\"home_made_halloween_shirt\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then I painted the Ghost with white fabric paint.<\/p>\n

Finally the t-shirt just needs turning inside out and dry-ironing (this can be done with a thin layer of fabric on the top too).<\/p>\n

My son loves this top so much he has been wearing it all year round! Obviously the same method can be used for any t-shirt at any time of year.<\/p>\n
