Sandpaper Printed T-shirt Kids Craft

The best part about this fun little craft is that the supplies were bought at the Dollar Store, even the T-shirt! We used crayons we already had so we only spent $2.00 on our new T-shirt. Supplies for Sandpaper Prints good quality crayons, a t-shirt, iron and fine sandpaper. Our package of sandpaper had a selection and we used the finest. Directions for Making a Sandpaper Printed T-shirt Color a fun design on the sandpaper. Place a piece of cardboard inside the t-shirt to keep the design from bleeding through to the back of the shirt. Place a piece of parchment paper or paper towel on top of the sandpaper to protect the iron.

Remove the sandpaper. To set the color, place a couple of paper towels on top of the design and iron. Search results for ideas for kids. Lessons. Art from found objects.

Art from found objects

This textile is gradually progressing and showing me what I need to do to it. I had acquired a bucket of nails after some improvements to our church, you know, just in case! With these nails I’ve decided to do some rust dying….never done it before but I love experimenting. The reason is because laid out I thought I might be able to create the shape of a vertebrae. Here goes. It will take a few days, so we will see how it turns out! AccessArt: Visual Arts Teaching, Learning & Practice.
