DIY Baymax shirt

Do you have Baymax fans? I have two in my house and they love Baymax. I can't count how many times we have watched the movie and lost track of how many times a day they say quotes from the movie. I even them made them a Baymax costume.

I really liked this template I found from Koalipops and knew it would be a perfect template to use and make it into a shirt. 

I was able to take Koalipops template and make it into this template. 

I am so excited about the end result and the shirt turned out 

better than I had hoped. 

This Baymax template is available for download here. 

This image can be resized. 

To make this shirt, all you will need is a t-shirt and t-shirt iron on transfer paper. On the back of the iron on transfer package, there are directions for how to print your image and transfer your image onto the t-shirt. There are two different kinds of iron on paper. One for transferring onto light colors and another for transferring onto dark colors. Buy the appropriate iron on transfer paper for the color of shirt you have choose. 

I know your Baymax fans are going to love this shirt just like my fans love theirs!

Tutorial on how to make a spiderweb shirt

I love Halloween time but usually opt to wear a Halloween shirt vs. a costume. For the last 6 years, I have worn the same Halloween shirt so I decided this year, it was time to upgrade. I saw this idea on pinterest but there was no pattern available so I tackled the task of making a spiderweb pattern. I didn't turn out exactly how I wanted but I decided no spider web is perfect so my shirt didn't need to be either.

To make this shirt, you can download and print the spiderweb pattern here. Then follow these steps:

1. Line up the spider web pattern and tape together.

2. Cut the paper pattern out,  then place it on top of your shirt, and trace the pattern onto the shirt using a white fabric pencil or white chalk.

3. Then I cut the pattern out on your shirt.

Baseball themed family reunion shirts

This summer we had a family reunion with my family. It has been about 2 or 3 years since all the siblings have been together. My older sister joked about making matching t-shirts but I thought it was a great idea. I had already made matching skirts for my niece so I decided it would be fun to have matching shirts not only for them but for everyone. We also bought matching basketball shorts for all the nephews.

I decided on a baseball theme and color coded the shirts.
Each color represents a family. 

I designed the shirts in Word and then printed onto heat transfer paper. On the back of the heat transfer package, there are directions for how to print your image and how to transfer your image onto the shirt.

For the grandchildren shirts, I had their birth order and names on the back.

On the back of the shirts for my parents it says Coach Papa and Coach Monga; these are the names the grandchildren call them.
Then for all the siblings and spouses it says Assistant Coach.

This is the skirt I made for my nieces.

The grandchildren loved their shirts. I think one of my nieces wore hers almost everyday. It was a great family reunion and was so fun to spend time with all of my family!

Mike Wazowski shirt with free printable

My four year old is very excited for the new movie Monster University. My brother in law manages a movie theater so my boy is even more excited to see it at his Uncle's theater.

In anticipation of waiting for the movie coming out, I made this Mike Wazowski shirt for my boy.  

Then I made this shirt using the monster incorporated logo for my husband.

This project is so quick and easy. I think I made both shirts in less than 5 minutes. All you need is a t-shirt and white heat transfer.  Make sure you have the right heat transfer otherwise you will make my mistake. Mike Wazowski's eyeball is suppose to be white but because I bought the wrong heat transfer, it didn't come out white. Luckily my boy is not picky! 

After you have your supplies, right click on one of the images below and save. You then can open in any application of your choice and size your image. 

Then follow the directions on the back of heat transfer package for printing your image and  transferring your image.

Car Shirt idea for Father's Day

I found this idea  from The Blue Basket on pinterest and made it for my husband for Christmas, though it would be a perfect Father's Day gift. Instead of using fabric paint as the tutorial suggest, I opened the pictures in Adobe Photoshop (Paint program would work as well) and filled in the images with color. I then printed onto iron on transfer paper. Make sure to use the print mirror image on your computer when printing so your letters aren't backwards. It was the perfect gift for both my husband and my boys. Below is how my t-shirt looked. I really like that the colors are bright and vivid.
