Disney Side Polka Dot T-Shirt Tutorial

Disney Side Polka Dot T-Shirt TutorialWe made some super cute Disney Side Polka Dot T-Shirts at our Disney Side party. Check out this video for a step by step tutorial of how we made our fun t-shirts.

Here is what you need:

Plain t-shirt (I’m a fan of the V-Neck Tee)

Your favorite Disney silhouette

Contact Paper

Scissors

Fabric Markers

 

Trace your favorite Disney silhouette onto the contact paper and then cut it out. Remember that the image you use will be mirrored so if you want it to face a certain direction keep that in mind when tracing. Disney Side Polka Dot T-Shirt Tutorial  Place your t-shirt flat and place a piece of cardboard inside of it so that the markers do not bleed through to the back of the t-shirt. After you cut out your design, peel the backing off and place it on your plain white t-shirt. Make sure you press down all the edges.

 Disney Side Polka Dot T-Shirt Tutorial Use the fabric markers to put dots all around the design. When you’ve used all the colors you want, remove the contact paper and then follow the directions on your fabric markers to make the color set. Whether it’s an iron or the dryer, the heat will cause the markers to set so that your design doesn’t wash away when you wash it.

  • Hi there! This idea is awesome! My mom and I are actually making shirts with character silhouettes for our trip to Disney World in November. We chose Belle, Cheshire Cat, Jack Skellington, and Meg from Hercules.

  • Love this! Used my cricut and Tulip fabric paint NOT markers. Turned out great. So good I did several others similar to it for our upcoming trip to Disney.

  • I just stumbled on to your website through Pinterest and this shirt project looking for ideas for kid shirts for school this fall.
    Great use of contact paper as a stencil and kudos for making sure to point out that the first row of dots around the stencil is half on the shirt, half on the stencil. I realized how important to a crisp line that tidbit is.
    Thanks again!

    Firebird
    really liked it
    Firebird is a solid dark romantasy read. You have dragon-shifter political leaders of Rome. A witch who I don’t think we have seen the full extent of her power yet. There were so many little side stories told that I believe our FMC will ...
    Sunrise on the Reaping
    it was amazing
    Oh Haymich, my heart is shattered for you. This was the perfect bridge between The Ballard of Songbirds and Snakes and Catching Fire. Linking the wickedness of The Hunger Games with the victors who came together to end them. If Suzanne C...

    liked it
    This was a sweet romance read. I really enjoyed the audiobook narrators (Joshua Manning and Stina Nielsen). I don’t usually read books that fall into the religious category, but I’m a sucker for Scots and Irishman so that is why I wanted...
    My Demon Hunter
    really liked it
    I am thoroughly enjoying the Hell Bent series. My Demon Hunter was even better than My Funny Demon Valentine. I’m a sucker for demonology stories, and these are filled with all kinds of interesting characters. This one features a plus-si...
