WE’VE MOVED!
Check out this post and other crafty inspiration over at our new blog!
Good Afternoon and Happy St. Patrick’s Day! I have another quick and easy project for you today… Pinch Proof St. Patrick’s Day T-Shirts with fabric paint!
Remember post a few weeks ago for our Top 17 St. Patrick’s Day Crafts! I was so inspired that I decided we absolutely must have {PINCH PROOF} t-shirts! This past Veteran’s Day, we experimented with fabric paint as a kid’s craft and had so much fun… so we decided to do it again!
I picked up everything I needed from my local Hobby Lobby: plain t-shirt, fabric paint, sponges and adhesive vinyl. The design is available for purchase in the Silhouette Store (did you know all designs are 50% off right now?!?). I measured the width of my shirt and enlarged the image to my desired size.
Once you weed and transfer your vinyl design onto your t-shirt, it’s a simple task of filling in the design with fabric paint. TIP: don’t forget to insert a barrier on the inside of your shirt to keep the paint from bleeding through to the back.
As you can see, we perform our paint crafts on the tile floor {LOL}. I’m just not brave enough to try out the dining room table yet, but you can always cover it with a table cloth first. I decided to wait until the shirts dried overnight before peeling off the vinyl. And here is our final project…
Thanks for joining us today! We hope you found your very own way to be PINCH PROOF! If you enjoyed this project, we have a few others you might enjoy, too.

They turned out awesome! I want to make some Easter t-shirts like this with my girls! Thanks for linking up with us! You were featured today on my blog!
Thanks for the awesome feature! My boys love making and wearing their own shirts. When they get older, we might move on to HTV, but I don’t trust them with the iron just yet, LOL.
That is so cool! I never would have thought to sponge paint on the fabric paint! This opens a whole world of stenciled fabrics to me! Thanks for linking it up to Snickerdoodle Sunday!
