Bright decor of a plain T-shirt
Any thing can be transformed beyond recognition and this master class confirms what has been said.
In this master class we will talk about decorating a children's plain T-shirt using available materials with minimal investment.
To work you will need:
•thing for decoration;
•contours on the fabric (at least two colors);
•a simple pencil for drawing contours;
•decorative elements (buttons, beads, ribbons, rhinestones, etc.);
•needle and thread.
Decoration process.
The whole process can be divided into several stages.
Stage 1. Preparation.
1.Before you start decorating, you need to prepare all the necessary materials and tools. Clothing must be clean and dry;
2.Come up with a design that you will depict on the clothes. If you don’t know how to draw at all, then you can print out a suitable version from the Internet. In order for the printed outlines to be clearly visible through the fabric, it is necessary to draw the outline on the paper with a wide marker;
3.Using a simple pencil, begin to draw an outline on the fabric. You need to draw everything, even the smallest details, and only after that move on to the next stage.
Stage 2.Working with color.
Paint application features:
1.Start applying color from top to bottom, this will prevent the paint from smearing while working;
2. It’s better to start with the main color, i.e. the one that is most abundant in the picture. In this master class, the dominant color is green, so that’s why we started with it. Once the outlines of the main color are applied, move on to other colors;
3. You need to immediately apply paint along the contour, this will preserve the boundaries of the drawing and the paint will not “float” when drawing the internal parts of the image.
4.When drawing, you need to press well on the tube, then the outline will be complete and bright;
5.Only after the outline has dried (2-3 hours) can you proceed to filling in the inside of the image. In order for the color inside the picture to be even and smooth, it is convenient to use a palette onto which a small amount of paint is squeezed out and a few drops of water are added. This method will allow you to distribute the paint in an even layer and use a brush, which is much more convenient than working with a narrow nozzle on a tube with an outline.
6. When all parts of the image have both main contours and internal color, you can complement them with additional strokes, for example, draw veins on leaves, and bends on flowers. Such elements are made in the same way as the main outline, but at the very end of drawing.
Fixing paint on fabric:
In order for the image on clothing to last a long time and not wash off, it must be properly secured.
After completing the design, the paint must dry for at least 24 hours, after which the garment must be ironed on the reverse side at the maximum permissible temperature (depending on the type of fabric) for 5 minutes.
This stage must be approached with full responsibility, since failure to comply with the technology will lead to the pattern being washed off after the first wash.
Stage 3. Complementing the drawing.
When all the previous stages are completed, you can move on to the final work - decoration. You can use absolutely any details to complement the image. In this version, yellow buttons were used for the centers of the flowers and green ones to complement the leaves.
As an option, you can use nylon tapes to form voluminous flower petals and beads to imitate the centers.
As you can see, the process of decorating clothes can be very interesting, the main thing is to be patient and awaken your imagination, then both the process and the result will please you.
