You know we love t-shirt projects. Why wear something ordinary when there are so many ways you can jazz it up? Over at UCreate Crafts, we found a guest post by Katy from Sweet Verbena showing how to use a simple resist technique to make a one-of-a-kind, completely personalized shirt design. Use a favorite quote, song lyrics, doodles, or anything else you want to decorate your shirt. Wouldn’t this make a fun activity for a slumber party? [how to make a watermark t-shirt]

Project estimate:

White t-shirt, on hand or $1
Gel glue, on hand or $1 and up
Fabric dye, on hand or about $3 and up

Total: Free and up
