How to Make a Christmas Shirt
- Place the red chiffon flowers in a cluster with the leaves and determine the placement on the shirt. After you’ve decided on the placement, remove flowers and remove the sticky backing from your leaf stencil and place onto the shirt.
2. Place a piece of cardboard in the shirt underneath where the stencil is so that if the fabric paint bleeds, it won’t bleed to the back of the shirt. Paint on the green fabric paint. Allow to dry and apply a second coat if needed. Heat set according to the directions on the fabric paint bottle.
3. Trim off the netting around the chiffon flowers.
4. Using a needle and thread, stitch the chiffon flowers in a cluster by the leaves so that they resemble holly berries.
