Everyone got a stencil for xmas

A few months ago, Elise told me about freezer paper stencils. Since then, I've gone a bit haywire with it. It's really a simple project (depending on your stencil!) and keeps me out of trouble for hours. Here's how: You find an image that you like, trace it onto freezer paper, cut it out with an x-acto, iron it onto a shirt and fill it in with fabric paint, making sure you iron on another piece of freezer paper to the reverse side of your stencil (the inside of the shirt) before you paint. You wait for the paint to dry, then rip off the freezer paper. And voila. The only bummer is that the freezer paper stencils are a one-time-use type of thing. So you only make them for people you really love!

Here are some cool onesies (sumo wrestler, guinea pig, Atari joystick) I made for Ryan Baby. I used onesies from American Apparel and Jacquard Textile paint.

Steve got a 21-window VW bus. Here it is in progress and the finished product. Oliver gives it a sniff of approval!
