I was happily rummaging through drawers, boxes and bin yesterday....Yup. Cleaning the workroom again...Or I should say still.
I found a black textile pen. I don't remember when I bought it, but it still worked...
I couldn't let a good thing dry out and go to waste,could I?
I dug in my closet and found a very dull tee shirt that was in dire need of a makeover.
Let the fun begin....Forget cleaning.
Zentangling can be a fashion statement.
I started with the three leaves and the eye, that you see in the first photo and worked out from there.
In the second photo, I hid my signature and year.
Don't ask me what any of it means. I think it just means that I was bored with cleaning and wanted an excuse to quit.
I didn't want to do the whole shirt. I don't want to do all of that work and have it wash out if the fabric pen isn't a good one.
This is as far as I got for the sample. Now I will wait for a day or two and then wash it in cold water, maybe delicate cycle.
If it still looks OK, I may add more. If not, I will find a better pen and a new shirt. This is a great way to make a tee shirt look fashionable...Or at least wearable. I sure hope that this works.
Sorry about getting sidetracked. Back to the cottage tomorrow.
See you then...Somebody, hide the pen! I am having way too much fun.
Very nice, I alway enjoy seeing your zentangles, they are always so interesting. That tee is not boring any more, I hope that the ink stays in place.

Amazing this is done with one pen. Love the 'Walk this Way'. This technique would make great cushions.

ReplyDeleteCasey, I always love to see your zentangles. That's a great t-shirt and I hope it washes well so you can wear it. It's beautiful. It's so original!
ReplyDeleteYou are awesome. If I tried any doodling...not a pretty image, trust me.
ReplyDeleteYou are a wizard with that pen. People are going to be sending you their old shirts! :)
ReplyDeletegreat job, the t-shirt looks as if it could have been found in a store like that. Really hope it won't be ruined when you wash it!
