The white shirt will be to wear at the parade as all the little boys in our family have one. I used my Stand And Salute circuit to create a stencil. If you plan on making a stencil use vinyl. It sticks way better than freezer paper. I used regular craft paint because I didn't want to buy special tee shirt paint plus I made these last night at midnight. For the blue one I made a stencil again out of vinyl. I didn't want my boys super matchy-matchy so I made them the same shirt in reverse. I did the bleaching technique. I had to play around with the amount of bleach to water ratio. I bought a small travel size spray bottle to spray it from. These were super easy to do, less than a hour to make both designs. I found the white shirts from The Dollar Tree and the blue one is from Walmart. All in all i spent less than $4 per boy. Im super excited to have them wear them next week!

4th of July shirts
It's become a tradition to make shirts for our annual 4th if July celebration. I usually only do one shirt but this year I wanted something more.
