Want a totally unique party idea?
Have an ink blot t-shirt making party!
Coolest thing since sliced bread.
I decided to take on a group of 50 kids for some ink-blot t-shirt making madness and it was a smashing success!
What's more rewarding, than making something super cool and being able to show it off ?! The kids were so excited to make them and even more exited to wear them.
Everyone's done tie-dye, but have you tried Ink blot t-shirt design?
It's the newest, coolest way to design your own t-shirts. And it's easy enough for any age. Like really easy. Anyone who can drip paint and fold something in half is eligible. See what I mean?
Here's a little demo.
Hard to believe such cool designs come from something so simple.
Okay, back to my crazy ink blot partaay!
We started off with our supplies. If you're interested in making it really easy on yourself? You can purchase pre-made Ink Blot T-shirt Design Kits from my etsy shop (sorry, no longer available).
Here's a bit of what we started with:
- White t-shirts
- Fabric Paint
- Pre-folded {recyclable} cereal boxes (to use as cardboard inserts)
T-shirts all stuffed and ready to go.
Kids ready to go.
Let the paint squeezing begin!
Then fold
Big reveals
Oooooh.....ahhhhhhh
The kids had lots of fun discussing what they saw in each of the designs.
Robots? Animals? Insects? Space aliens?
You name it. They saw it.
T-shirts laying out to dry. We had quite a line up starting.
And just in case you're a sucker for before and after's like me?
Here you go:
- Learned new skills
- Created fun memories
- Beamed with pride over their newly designed t-shirts they made all themselves
- An activity well worth doing
Proudly showing off their creations
{Protecting the kiddos privacy by "blotting" out their faces.}
They're smiling. I promise!
Great activity idea for:
Birthday parties, school activities, summer camps, fundraisers, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, family reunions, sweet 16 parties, or just rainy day activities!
Ink Blot T-shirt Design Kits were previously available for purchase, complete with tips and detailed instructions at SSorensenDesigns.etsy.com
{WATCH} to see how fun an ink blot party can be!
