I would not expect sharpie to be as durable on a shirt as paint or fiber reactive dye, so hand wash those items for better color fastness.IamSusiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05477300247354661564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2550866655344781397.post-10998783347370819732013-09-11T10:53:49.478-05:002013-09-11T10:53:49.478-05:00Your shirts turned out beautifully!

I did this on bandanas with 20 art camp kids and it worked AMAZINGLY even with the "faux sharpies" from the dollar store and drug store rubbing alcohol. The kids had so much fun and the patterns came out so interesting. I was the only one spraying for safety and I had a plastic bag covering the table. My bandana came out most interesting from cleaning up the colors that bled onto the bag - so fun! Looking forward to getting your posts via email :)Susan M.

She just had to show all of us. We made a rainbow on a shirt, added a few trees and other scenic items. We then held the t-shirt at an angle so the alcohol would run down and rather than dripping the alcohol, we sprayed it with a pump bottle. The effect was terrific! It ended up looking like a reflection in a lake. This craft certainly warrants experimentation!
