I will use my heart print stencil over and over again. Done.Įven just one little golden heart printed on the pocket gives the t-shirt a whole new look: Go on like this until you have as many hearts on your t-shirt as you desire.Ĩ – Let dry for at least 24 hours, then iron as per instructions on the fabric paint. Once it has been moved, it is almost impossible to replace it exactly in the same way.ħ – If you will use more then one colour, make sure the brush is clean and dry before you use it with the next colour or use more then one brush (one for each colour).Ĩ – When the heart is dry to touch, reposition the stencil for the next heart and repeat steps 3 till 6. Optional: Take stencil off and spray the BACK slightly with spray adhesive (repositionable), put it back on the t-shirt and press slightly around the stencil edges.ĥ – Apply paint with a gentle pounding motion, holding the brush straight vertically.Ħ – Cover the heart with paint and let it dry for some minutes before you lift the stencil. Watery paint will bleed under your stencil edges.Ģ – Use clips to make sure the cardboard doesn’t change position.ģ – Place your heart stencil on the t-shirt, where you want the heart print to be.

It’s a perfect occasion to wear my heart print t-shirt – not at the ceremony, of course. We are invited to our friends Maryke and Jopie’s wedding and will spend the whole weekend celebrating their love with them. I’m gonna celebrate like crazy this weekend. With love everything is possible, love makes us feel appreciated, special and safe. It’s the most important and most wonderful thing. We should celebrate the love in our lives through out the year, every day if possible. In my opinion we shouldn’t have only one specific day to celebrate love. I want to take the opportunity to celebrate LOVE.
