Laundry Day Penny
With talk of iron-ons, I realized I never put the process for Penny's Laundry Day shirt. I mentioned some of this in my "Look at this!" post, but I'll say it again so its all in one spot. :D
This shirt:
is this one: http://www.threadless.com/product/824/Keeping_It_Real
Process:
1. I took this:
2. Edited it to this:
(click for full-size)
3. Printed it on an iron-on transfer sheet (light tshirt transfer, so make sure you flip it!) I just scaled it so that it filled the entire page.
4. Cut out as close as i could get to the printed area using an x-acto. The closer the cut, the less it looks like an iron-on and instead just printed on to the shirt.
5. Ironed on to this: http://store.americanapparel.net/2102.html?cid=199&c=Baby%20Blue
(This one works too - http://store.americanapparel.net/2001w.html?cid=199&c=Baby%20Blue or really any light-blue t-shirt)
The result:
And viola. I actually have to make another one at some point... I've worn this one so much that its faded quite a bit.
The skirt i found on ebay and altered it (too big and it was floor-length originally).
