More Tshirt Stencils

I've been on a roll with the whole tshirt stenciling thing. Here's some that I did for myself.


I used the simple little stars to cover up some stains that I thought had ruined one of my fave comfy shirts. Now its wearable again!

Betty Page:

The graphic from the novel Virgin Suicides. This was a bit fussier and harder than some of the others.

And lastly, a stencil from the graffiti artist Banksy. If you aren't familiar with his work, look at this Flickr set.



Next project should probably be prettifying this blog. It's a little on the plain side right now.

First Post and Stenciled Tees

I've decided to start a craft blog which is exactly where you're at. I thought it would give me some incentive for actually completing some of the many projects I start. My husband refers to our spare room as "the place where crafts go to die." Pretty accurate at the moment, but I'm gonna change all that.

So far I've dabbled in beading, paper mache, knitting (pathetically), and other random projects. I'd like to play around more with these kinds of crafts as well as learn to sew (really really badly), cross stitch (subversively), and make interesting artwork. This is gonna record my efforts - bad and good.

First to start out on a positive note, I think I'll share something that turned out well.


These freezer paper stencils are so much fun to make! And so easy.

This one says, "Chuck Norris doesn't sleep. He waits."

And this one is the prettiest pair of jackelopes I've ever seen:
