I wanted a way for my two girls to display and show their artwork to their friends. I would love to be able to carry around a portfolio of all their art projects! A friend suggested I put their artwork onto magnets, which I thought was a great idea. Instead, I chose to scan in my favorite art and put them on a t-shirt.
The pink t-shirt is for my little tom-boy. She hates to sit and draw and would rather be running or taking apart things. She has a great eye for taking pictures. In fact, I have several pictures she's taken of my husband and myself when no one else has been able to snap the shot. She's a little natural photographer.
My other daughter is my little princess. She refuses to dress in anything other than a skirt and must have a bow or barrette in her hair to match her ensemble. She is also loves to draw (featured in a previous blog) . I added a little extra detail to the t-shirt with a ribbon and bow around her waist. The ribbon reminded me of her favorite princess and of her drawing - Snow White.
All I used were:
2 blank t-shirts
scanning machine for girls artwork
Iron-on transfer paper
ink-jet printer
hot iron
sewing machine to sew the ribbon around the sleeves and waist.
I am giving it to them to wear with cute tights and a skirt to church on Sunday - I'll take a picture and post it later!
