Before beginning, wash and dry the T-shirt, without fabric softeners, in order to remove any sizing. Use your computer and printer to print out the template.

Tip: Simply adjust the size of the template before printing, to accommodate any size of T-shirt.

#@#

Following packaging directions and working in a well-ventilated area, spray a very light layer of stencil adhesive onto the front of the template. Let the template sit for about 5 minutes to let the stencil spray become tacky. This will make it easier to remove the template from the T-shirt later.

#@#

Place the T-shirt onto the form and smooth it out. Slip the template in between the form and T-shirt, and adjust it until the design is placed exactly where you want it. Smooth down the T-shirt over the top of the template so that there are no wrinkles.

#@#

With the black brush tip marker, press lightly to trace the template design onto the T-shirt. Carefully peel away the template, and use the remaining brush tip markers to color in the design to your liking.

Tip: Keep the T-shirt form underneath the shirt as you color in order to keep the ink from bleeding through onto your work surface.

#@#

Air the shirt for about an hour to reduce the odor, then place in a dryer on high heat for 30 minutes to heat set the ink. Wash in cold water only.
