Tulip DIY T-Shirt Design Kit contents

Your Tulip DIY T-Shirt Design Kit comes with everything you need to easily create your very own T-shirt, including some fun patterns to choose from. Use a light-colored, prewashed and dried T-shirt for best results, then pick out your pattern. A.V. went with this happy quote art design for her shirt! PS. This kit can also be used with other fabric items, not just T-shirts. As A.V. says, “If you can trace on it, you can use it. Tote bags also make a fabulous choice.”

Trace design onto T-shirt using LED Tracing Pad

To create your design on your T-shirt, turn on the LED Tracing Pad; use the power button to adjust the brightness setting needed for you to easily light up the pattern through the top layer of your T-shirt. Tape your chosen pattern to the LED Tracing Pad and place inside your shirt. Use the included Fabric Marker to trace over the pattern, directly onto the fabric. Let the ink dry before moving on to the next step.

Insert cardboard between layers of shirt

Before you start painting in your design, remove the LED Tracing Pad and insert a piece of cardboard between the layers of your shirt to create a stable painting surface. This also helps to prevent any paint from soaking through to the back of shirt. 

Mix fabric paints to create new colors

The fabric paints in your kit can also be mixed to create new colors! Get creative and have fun customizing the design to make it truly your own.

Let T-shirt dry completely

Once you’re happy with your painted design, let it dry completely (for at least 4 hours or more). The paints will dry permanent, soft and flexible on your shirt so it’s still comfortable to wear! Once dry, you can remove the cardboard and get ready to show off your design skills to friends and family.
