Help to design a tee shirt?
Well, I’m going to make my own little "tradition", Free Compliment Friday, and I’ve decided on making a t-shirt or two to wear on Fridays.
So, I’m wondering, where can I find some stuff to design a t-shirt. Do they have like glitter or stuff that’s made for tees?
Also, do you have a certain fabric paint that you find is really like durable or stays on and doesn’t smudge when washed?
Thank you(:
I would go to a craft shop like Michael’s or Joann’s. They have a section for this and there are lots of ideas. The paint I use comes from Joann’s and is called 3d paint- Scribbles. There are tons of colors and glitters to choose from. It is very easy to use and does not wash out. you do need to let it set for 24 hours. You can iron on transfers. Get beads and sew them on. You can even put you favorite photo on the shirt. they have the kit to do that with a copying machine. Look where you would find quilting books and tools. You can even use buttons and patches. In the children’s sections of these stores they have crayons that you can use on fabric. You can even buy "fat quarters" material and cut out any shape or design you want and glue it on the t-shirt. There is fabric glue that you can find in the same section as the paints and transfers.You can also sew these designs on.

Michaels crafts supplies stores (and possibly other similar stores) carry a line of fabric paint that is excellent. It’s the Tulip brand, and it comes in several styles. If you get the Tulip Soft (their best, honestly) you’ll also need a brush. You paint it on like any paint, and it doesn’t make the fabric stiff. It holds up really well in the wash, too, as long as you follow the instructions for using the paint and for washing. I think they have glitter colors in the Soft, but know they have them in some of the other lines.
