Being an avid Pinterester (is that a word? probably not...), I knew there were lots of ways I could make my own shirt, so I decided to make 4 for our family to wear at the concert, so we could all match. As I was buying the supplies for this on Tuesday night I saw how inexpensive it was to buy the supplies and the lightbulb went off. I decided I would make shirts to sell myself! So for the past 3 days I've been cutting out stencils and painting nonstop. We've got 60 tshirts ready to sell!
The supplies- tshirts, freezer paper, sponge brushes and fabric paint.
LOTS of time spent tracing and cutting out the Africa pattern...
I'm starting to see Africa everywhere I look!
The first two I painted, for Alexis and Kaitlyn.
Making progress... I also made an Africa canvas to sell tomorrow night.
I love that I got to pick out lots of different colors! These are the regular fit shirts.
And these are the fitted tee's, they were a little more expensive than the others,
so we didn't buy as many of these.
We also bought a few toddler and children's tshirts that we'll be selling, and some bibs!
Things to be praying for-
Please be praying that our fundraiser tomorrow night is a HUGE success! We've put a lot of work into it and would love to see a big turn out. Also keep Elizabeth in your prayers, as well as her caregivers. We're waiting on a document from immigration and Andrew's passport, so pray those things get here quickly so they can be on their way to Congo!
