Bleach Pen Shirts

HERE is a good example.
Freezer paper could be used to make more exact images for older students.

Supplies:

Colored shirt or fabric

Bleach pen

Paper or newsprint

Cookie cutters (optional)

Tray to hold bleach for cookie cutters (optional)

Instructions:

1. Lay shirt out flat with paper inside

2. Draw on with bleach pen and stamp with cookie cutters dipped in bleach

3. Let dry

4. Rinse in water before washing

Tips:

* Be careful. Little children get this everywhere on themselves.

* Try not to get the bleach on too thick because it takes a long time to dry in clumps

* It is best to soak each shirt in water first before sending them home to be washed

* Words don't work well because the bleach spreads quickly
