Spray the Shirt

Spray Painted T-Shirt

Spray the shirt over the stencil.

Rain Blanken
Insert your cardboard into the shirt. This is to make sure that the paint doesn't soak through to the other side of the shirt. Also, be sure you have newspaper laid out, or work outside.

Hold the spray paint can about 6” from the shirt and spray around the stencil. Apply a light amount of spray paint, it doesn't take much. This technique gives the design a spattered look.

  • To get the look we made, move the stencil down the shirt as you spray paint.

  • Cut out different shapes and designs for your stencil. You can buy pre-cut stencils at your local craft store.

Try doing this craft on a t-shirt halter top.
