As Pink as a Rose

So this was an interesting experience. I had this great idea of using bleach pens on a tshirt to make some pretty white roses on a tshirt. Had that worked, I probably would have covered the front of the tee in roses, but alas: the bleach pen did not work.

The last time I tried it, the bleach bled much more than I wanted, so I was looking forward to trying again. Which I did. Three times. If you look really close at the first picture, you might be able to see the faint marks the bleach pen made. After the third wash I decided it was time to pull out one of the trusty fabric markers… And here’s what I got:

Rose tshirt

I based the roses off a design we used on a backdrop for a show at college (when I say we, I mean the theatre department and my dear friend Jen, who ended up cutting out thousands of these roses herself).

Simple and unique tshirt idea.

This is a tote that I’m probably going to make for myself. Or at least something pretty similar. Very simple: I used the same technique with the doilies as I did on these,  drew on the sides (gray and white fabric markers), and sewed on the zipper rose I got at Michael’s.

Thrifty gifts!
Heart Argyle Tshirt
Heart Argyle TshirtFor tshirt number one, I used a diamond stencil and my trusty fabric markers. On the shirt pictures below, I wrote out part of the love chapter on red tshirt fabric, cut out my heart and hand-stitched it on the tee. Pretty simple and cute. ;-)
