craftgrrl | First time stenciller! wh00t (Reply)

So, the day I took my last final I went straight to A.C. Moore and walked around for a while, trying to find supplies for a holiday project/gift for my boyfriend.

I noticed that they had unfinished wooden "decorative" paddles... LOL. But I decided that should wait for another special occasion. I settled on making him a t-shirt. I only had short of ten bucks, so I got one textile marker and a blank Hanes shirt.

Using this pic of a squirrel for reference

I Xactoed out a stencil. Why the squirrel? Well, my bf and I both love seeing squirrels on both our respective college campuses and have a little ritual of calling eachother if we see an especially cute one. Whilst one of these conversations, somehow we talked about squirrels eating strange objects (eyeballs, etc) and he said "Squirrels will eat anything if you pay them enough." I then laughed for about five minutes. Lots of things are funnier when you're tired. With that quote in mind...

"Squirrels will eat anything if you pay them enough." --D.R.S t-shirt modeled by my boyfriend. Note how he is pointing to it to make sure you know where the shirt is. (Sorry 'bout the wrinklage)

Also, for anyone that has an AC Moore near them--every week they put a 40% off coupon online. Just Google "ac moore coupon" and it'll take you straight to it.
