Painted Heart Tees
I know what I’m wearing for Valentine’s Day! I’ll probably wear this throughout the entire month. I should probably start making some more shirts. These are so fun you guys!!! Make these! I have to tell you that I have been using this acrylic craft paint for a million other crafts and never thought about the fact that it would stay on clothes. I was washing a sheet that I use under my crafts when I am painting and found out that the paint didn’t come off… perfect! So what’s the next thing to do? Paint a shirt of course. I have seen these shirts on pinterest and in a million stores so I wanted to share with you all how easy it is and how I figured out how to do it. You can make this for yourself, paint cloths for your kids/babies (the paint is non-toxic), or put a cute gift together for someone.

a top/shirt/pants/onesie
Non-Toxic Acrylic Craft Paint (here is the kind I used)
foam paint brush
full sheet label paper
magazine
Instructions:
*Lay the shirt onto a flat surface
*Fold the large label sheet in half and draw half of a heart shape; this helps to make sure both sides are even
*Cut the heart out
*Set onto the shirt to see where you would like it placed
*Remove the back of the label sheet and place the sticky heart shape onto the shirt where you had planned
*Take a magazine and place it inside the shirt right under the heart where you plan to paint
*Pour the paint onto a paper plate and use the foam brush to carefully paint inside the heart shape into the shirt
*Allow to dry and apply another coat
*If if still isn’t covering the shirt you can do a third coat
*Allow to dry completely
*Remove the label from the shirt
*Wear it!!
