DIY T-shirt Art- Bleach Pen


If you have any boring, plain t-shirts laying around you might have fun giving them new life with some custom artwork.  You can get a bleach pen for under $3- make sure it says "For Whites" on it!


Put a piece of cardboard or wax paper inside your shirt so that the bleach doesn't bleed through to the other side.  I freehand drew this, but if you had a stencil to trace that would work too.  Whatever design you want!


Eyeball it.  Darker colors will take longer to fade under the bleach gel.  I waited about 15 minutes and I could see around the edges that it was nice and faded, so I rinsed off the bleach in the  sink.

Yup, dirty dishes.

Throw it in the wash, dry it, and wear it!
