Jerral's Personalize Tee!

Mommy always wanted to buy Lil’ Jerral some personalize cute tees that belong just to him, but getting it done or printed at a specialize retail store could cost up to S$35++…which is absolutely not worth it!!

During Mommy’s design school days, some of her specialties were silk screening and textile design. So, she decided to make one for the Lil’ One instead. Searching through some of Mommy’s art stuffs collected and bought during her design school days (heehee which was like almost 9 years back!), she found a box of water-based, permanent fabric paint and decided to get into the mood of making one personalize tee for the Lil’ One today!

It took her less than 45 minutes to complete the stencil style tee from scratch to finish.

First Mommy brainstormed a few ideas for the print and decided to go for the simplest one since she has not been working on one for a very very long time.

Than Mommy transferred the Mickey’s design onto a mini cardboard, and aligned the stencil cupboard onto the t-shirt and stuck it down with some scotch-tape..

Next step is to start painting/ coloring on the tee, but since Mommy has misplaced the brushes she bought so many years ago, she went on painting the tee with a new dish-washing sponge instead.

Finally done and to set the paint, air out the tee for a couple of hours before placing a piece of paper over the printed tee and ironing over it to prevent the color from fading.

Ta da! Here goes Lil’ Jerral's Personalize tee!!

And Mommy gave the tee an extra touch by adding a mini bow-tie to it!
