One Direction Shirt


So I was looking on Youtube on how to make some One Direction projects.  I found a project
on how to make a One Direction shirt.  I thought, I don't need to watch a video...I already have an idea on how to make one!  I found an old tank top (or you can buy a fitted t-shirt or tank from Walmart or Old Navy for $1-$5) and got some of my fabric paint out.

Things you need:
A plain shirt or tank top
Fabric Paint
Paint Brush
Paper Plate (for the paint)
1D logo stencil

1. Go to http://www.polyvore.com/1d_logo_for_shirt.egg/thing?id=59715044 and get the 1D logo. (You could also search on Google Images for another one you like.)
Print out the logo and cut out all the black parts.

2. Tape the stencil on to the shirt.  Take the paper plate and squirt some fabric paint on.  I used Tulip fabric paint.

3. I mixed the red and the white glitter together to get a red sparkly look for the 1D logo.

4. Take your paint brush and paint all through the 1D logo.  I used sparkly red.

5.  After that, let dry for 4 hours, or add a little extra on.  I painted the "sleeves" on the tank top blue just to add a "finished" and "cuter" look.  I also added some dots on the bottom hem.


Enjoy!
