DecoArt Ink Effects {tshirt tutorial}

I love trying new craft products so when I saw this DecoArt Ink Effect, I couldn’t wait to start playing with it. I had the perfect project in mind! The idea was to have all the kids paint one-eyed monsters for their for the Kids Olympics Party.  I loved the idea of having the kids personalize the front of their shirts. So…here’s a fun t-shirt tutorial!

Ink Effects Collage Pin it!

 Supply List:
-dollar store t-shirts
-all the amazing Ink Effects colors
Ink Effects spray for cotton shirts
a paint brush for each bottle
plenty of cardstock (works better than paper)
pens and pencils
I had the children draw their monsters with a pen or pencil and then paint it with the Ink Effects.  I had to keep reminding the children that the paint will end up the color on the bottle, not the color of the paint inside. 
{The colors are more vibrant when you iron them on the t-shirt.}

 Hang the shirts on hangers and spray the area you plan to iron with the Ink Effects spray for cotton fabric.  Let it dry and begin the ironing on process.

 Here is the best way I found to iron the picture on the shirt:
