July 4th Shirts

Mmmm...the 4th of July kinda snuck up on me. Actually a lot of things are doing that nowadays. Haha!

It was like July 2nd and I realized that I had not thought of anything. We had made these spray paint tye dye shirts at girl's camp and I thought they would be perfect. The kids can help design and spray them.

We ended up making them on July 3rd - just in time!

I cut out their name and stars using my silhouette. I used contact paper - but you could also you vinyl. I let them apply the stickers and then we got to work spray painting. I should have taken pics - but I had my hands full with FOUR girls!!

Basically, you just scrunch up the t-shirt or twist the t-shirt and then spray paint. The kids loved making them..and here's what we ended up with.
Jeff was worried about how they would hold up to washing and in case you're wondering - they look great. Here's a picture of Calista & Hailey's shirts AFTER being washed.
