hyhena (TM)

One of our friends always says common sayings/words wrong. We think they are pretty hilarious.

Yesterday was Andrew's birthday.

So here is the present we decided to give him.

The hyena I had to sketch freehand from a picture on the internet.

Trying to figure out the layout.

My pre-freezer paper template.

He thought Hyena had an 'h' - and that it was silent. haha

We are glad he can laugh about it too.

Freezer paper.

You cut out your image so it creates a stencil.

Freezer paper ironed onto the shirt.

Paint over your stencil. (I didn't have textile medium (long story) so I just diluted some acrylic paint so the consistency was kind of like milk.)

You are supposed to pull the freezer paper off while it is still wet - can anyone tell me why?

 Then you let it dry. (Or just use a hairdryer to speed things up...)

Sit back and admire the shirt that you just made. 

I kind of really love "hyhena" (TM).

It might possibly be the name of my future brand of something.

(I was inspired by this post. And now I really want to make that shirt too.)
