freezer stencil explanation

I wish I had taken more photo's of the other shirts I made, but if you get on Flickr and type in freezer stencil shirts you can see tons of examples. Basically what you do is buy freezer paper ( the kind that is waxy on only one side). You find a graphic you like and trace it on to the paper, or you can make your own drawing on the freezer paper. (B&W is best) Then using an exacto knife, cut it out. Here is the cool part. Iron your stencil on your shirt. Waxy, shinny side down. It will stick. then paint over the top with fabric paint. Wait until it dries, or hair dry it if your impatient like me and then remove the stencil. Taa Daaa. you made your own awesome shirt. You can do this with bags, hats, burp cloths, pillows, really the ideas are limitless. Last tip, if you have a Cricket scrap book machine, or vinyl cutting machine you can skip all the steps and just have the machine cut the freezer paper for you. Google it, there are better tutorials out there. check these

Disclaimer; this is a highly addictive activity with very gratifying results, it took me a good 2weeks to stop trying to put everything I saw on to a shirt.
