Today, I fixed this shirt o mine.

As continuation and practice of shirt reconstruction and stenciling, I did this shirt today. I came across a very VERY helpful tip. Spraying the back of the stencil with spray adhesive, letting it dry, and wammo, TACKY. So no more fly ups, no more blurs... it's great.


So I handpainted the branches, and cut up a few bird stencils to use on here.


The shirt was 2 dollars, half off from four, fits like a dream. Well, maybe like a dream that you start to realize is a dream, because the back is a little loose. So it's slightly less than a dream, but still good. The bigger bird is on the back.

The paint i had, and used very little of it. the brushes I had. Total cost of this project, under 3 bucks.


I was going to use the airbrush, but decided to try brushing the black paint on. Airbrushing is great for little details, and not getting the paint too thick on the fabric. But, I kind of wanted it thick.


Anywho, birds.
