T-shirt take home gifts


This weekend my oldest daughter had a slumber party . Since we always love to do a theme , she decided to have her & her friends go “camping”!

So up the big tent went in the basement! We went through all her stuffed animals & found all the bears . Then placed them around the tent & areas of the basement. And with any great camp ground , you have to get your souvenir t-shirt!
At “Camp Noelle” the girls were able to create their own. This was a great craft project & they’ll were all very excited to make this. This craft for 4 girls only cost about $20 to complete.

You’ll need a t-shirt (washed & dried) , iron on transfer sheets that can be drawn on (available at any craft store), permanent markers , ink jet printer (optional), iron & ironing board




                              
First wash & dry you’re the t-shirts. This will help ensure that the transfer sheets will properly adhere to the t-shirts ( I found that out the hard way!).

Decide your camp name & using one of the transfer sheets print camp name -one for each person. Or if you don't want to use a printer, you can easily use a pemanent marker. Then cut each camp name off the sheet & iron to the t-shirt according to the directions for the transfer sheet. I did this before the party for all the shirts so they would be ready to go.

Next, cut the rest of the transfer sheets in half so that there is a nice size rectangle for each child to draw their picture on. Set up a table complete with permanent markers & let them get creative! It was really cute to see how each picture turned out. They also ended up agreeing on an official camp sign & each drew it on their picture as well.

Little sister had to make one too!
Once they were all done, I again ironed on the sheets according to the directions. They loved their new t’s and were proud to show them off!
This ended up being such a fun project I can see us doing this again for other parties as well. It makes for such a fun take home gift too!
