Slam Dunk Tee

Hi I'm Lee Woodruff at the craft table with Family Fun. These printed t-shirts are a slam dunk and a sure fire away to score points with your little sports fan.

Here's what you'll need, a pre washed and ironed white t-shirt , a piece of poster board or cardboard, some orange fabric paint, a basketball, white paper, a pencil with an eraser, a sponge brush, a bicycle pump needle, and a cup. Let a little air out of the basketball so it can make a nice sized imprint on the t-shirt. Apply a light even circle of orange fabric paint about 6 inches in diameter on the section of the ball with the most intersecting lines. Use a pencil eraser to trace the black lines on the ball, removing the paint. This will make a much clearer image. Now you're ready to test the print on the piece of paper to perfect your technique. You'll want to repaint the ball before each print. Then you're ready for the t-shirt. After the paint dries your child with be ready to hoop it up with the pros.
