Today I have a fun, wild project for you today. I took some inspiration from Ed Hardy and made this t-shirt for my little guy.
I got out a plain white t-shirt, my Tulip fabric markers, and the Fashion Graffiti Big Phat Markers. Then I started to play.
I drew all over, looking at the Ed Hardy t-shirts for ideas.
Lastly, I filled in the designs with some color. Then I kept adding more details until I was happy. The markers are so fun and easy to use.
Then I tried the shirt out on little Baden. It's wild and fun, but it can also be tamed by pairing it with a sweatshirt or a short sleeve shirt over the top of it.
That's it. It was a fun and fairly easy project.
Thanks for reading.
Absolutely wonderful1!! I love it, and since I'm not that good at drawing, I'll prob let my personal artist do it for me, aka my husband, hehe!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE it! SO amazing! I want to make some for my son and daughter! How fun!
ReplyDeleteOH MY!!! I love that! My two boys would L-O-V-E!!!
ReplyDeleteWOW! I so love this!!!! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteWhat a super fun project!!! My son will LOVE this. Thank you for such an awesome idea. And I alredy have everything I need to get started so this is first on my list today!
ReplyDeleteYou do realize that no one can just "doodle" that well-- right? The shirt is perfect! Bade can really pull it off well.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea. A bonus is that you can play, I Spy if your waiting in line at the store. I so need to try this!

That shirt is so fun. What a fun activity for all the creative people out there. I can see Alice doing one for super hero's.
ReplyDeleteWow, your GOOD ARTIST. A t-shirt is hard to draw on too :) this is really neat, I love it.
ReplyDeleteLOVE IT! That shirt is so awesome, my boys would die for one. Fantastic job!
ReplyDeleteWay cooler than Ed Hardy.
ReplyDeleteYup another great idea I'm gonna have to try!
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen those markers in the stores, but have seen the new sharpie fabric ones... thinking they'll be just as good?!
So. Bad. Ass. lol !!! I love it. I think the look of those kinds of shirts are super cool but I don't often like all the symbols that are on them for the kids they are aimed at. Just like I wouldn't put a Mrs Timberlake shirt or something like that on my little bitty. Know what I mean? So DIYing this kind of thing is really cool, it means there's nothing on the shirt that you're not OK with, but it still looks super cool!
ReplyDeleteHow many times can I say cool? I'm clearly a pretty hip mom. hahaha.
love it!! My little guy would love it too! maybe I'll give it a try this wknd...
ReplyDeleteI am a new blogger and would love it if you would take a peek

That's totally awesome and unique! I've seen those markers before and thought " huh, I bet those would look cheesy on a shirt" well...you have definitely changed my mind!
ReplyDeleteGood job, love it!

ReplyDeleteIf you're designing a sexy t shirt, choose a font that has a sexy feel to it. And if you're designing a t shirt for a serious, professional law firm, you probably don't want to use that font with letters shaped like kittens.San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppollo t-shirt
ReplyDeleteRecently there has been a gigantic shopper reaction against the marked conformity of the corporate and authorized t-shirt market. The buyer is at last recovering some feeling of individuality, individuals today are not satisfied with the notion of "mark loyalty".t-shirts
