  4. Una template or cardboard to make it.
  5. Una the griddle.

Our Process

To start making this craft, you will need to select one template according to the design you want to make. In this case, with a piece of cardboard, a pencil and scissors, we have made a template with a word.

Once the template is made, we will place it on the shirt. First of all, we will put a cardboard or cardboard inside the shirt so that the back part is not marked with the waxes. Later, we will center the template and fix it with a little adhesive tape. 

In this case, we have filled the inside of some letters with the adhesive tape so that it does not get painted. Once we have fixed the cardboard and we are sure that it is the right place, we will proceed to fill the inside of the stencil with wax shavings. To do this, all you have to do is sharpen the wax or scrape it off with a knife.

Next, we will cover everything with the baking paper and we will pass the iron at high temperature and without steam function over the baking paper. In this way, the wax will melt and will start to dye the shirt, leaving the image of the template on it.

Before removing the baking paper, we will wait a few minutes for it to dry. And later, we will have our ccustom t-shirt. 

Until the next DIY!
