GaDawgFan.....Kelly 799 Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 If you're on pinterest, you've probably seen a craft where people use bleach in a spray bottle or bleach in a pen to create designs on t-shirts. I did it with a friend this weekend, and it was pretty easy. We had a couple of fails as we were experimenting, but most of what we did turned out great. Basically, you create stencils (we used a vinyl cutter), mix bleach and water in a spray bottle, and spray the design. I wish I new how to post pictures, so I could show what we did.

HappyCamper...Deb 61 Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 Though I have avoided Pinterest like the plague, I have made several really cool Disney items with bleaching and spray dyes. If you own a cricut, get freezer paper and cut out your shapes...iron them on and spray away. Super easy! (I'll post my projects when I return from shopping)Pinterest...is it as addicting as I have heard? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

alexwyattmommy 181 Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 Need photos and what is the bleach to water ratio? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HappyCamper...Deb 61 Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 Took me a while. (I had these posted on another forum and couldn't find them in photobucket)This is a bag and shirt I made with the freezer paper/cricut set up. Easy! Just be sure to prewash the fabric, iron the freezer paper well, and face spray directly over stencils or it may bleed. This was an old shopping bag I had laying around...Side #1Side #2Here is a T-shirt I made. (eh-hem...that USED to fit me) And here is a picture of my youngest (age 10 in photo) making his own Goofy drawstring bag for our tripGoofy Drawstring...in use :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
4mickey2 41 Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 omg, love it! do you use bleach w/o water? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HappyCamper...Deb 61 Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 These are actually the ones I made with fabric spray. Same idea though. (I added color...bleach will take away) The T-shirt was solid blue. I added "forrest" colors over the stencils to create a resist pattern of Mickies. Same idea with the other things I posted.

We4mickey 6 Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 These are great. For those of us that haven't done this before can we have details, please. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Momof6....aka Marty 769 Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 More details annd more pictures please. I REALLY don't want to have to join Pinterest just to learn how to do these. One more thing on the web to absorb my time and my children will have to educate themselves. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
campingpixi 11 Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 wow they look great!! What a wonderful idea! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GaDawgFan.....Kelly 799 Posted March 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 We used about 30% bleach 70% water. I don't have any pictures on the web because they're for a friend's baby shower, but I could email someone else to post or PM me, and I'll email it to you. We also used stencils to sponge paint and added fabric glitter. Really cool stuff! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GaDawgFan.....Kelly 799 Posted March 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 Or, I'll figure out how to post them after the shower on the 17th. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
