Splatter Shirt DIY

Paint splatter prints can be a fun addition to a drab wardrobe so today we bring you a simple do it yourself project for those plain or stained shirts you just are not ready to part with yet.



What you will need:
  • A shirt
  • Bleach
  • Gloves
  • Lots of newspaper
 1. Make sure you do this outside, this could get messy (and remember not to wear nice things!). Spread out lots of newspaper and make sure you put several sheets in the shirt so the bleach doesn't seep through.

2. Wearing gloves proceed to splatter the shirt. We used pure bleach to get a white splatter, but you can dilute it with water to achieve a lighter shade. The amount of splattering you do is purely your own decision.

3. Let it dry after you have done both sides and then put it through the wash. We recommend you wash it separately in cold water and without any laundry soap!

4. Enjoy!



(Please excuse the fog on the last pictures, I forgot going from indoors to the blazing Florida outdoors would make my camera fog!)
