How to make a Twilight Shirt

How to make a Twilight Shirt
This is how to make a cheap, easy shirt that says either Team Edward or Team Jacob. If you cant draw, the patterns are readily available photo sharing websites.
This is my first instructable, so please excuse any mistakes.

Step 1What youll need

Find, or buy, a white or light colored shirt, new or used, it doesnt matter. If its used, just make sure its clean.

Youll also need black sharpies. New sharpies work best. The older the sharpie, the harder youll have to press and pressing hard is difficult on a shirt.

DO NOT use red (or pinkish) sharpies. They will bleed on everything is the washer, including themselves.

Youll also need a piece of cardboard roughly the size of the shirt. They do make cardboard for this at craft stores, but for drawing on them in sharpies, a regular piece of cardboard works fine. I wouldnt suggest a pizza box, or anything else greasy.

I guess it could also work for a "Team Tyler's Van" shirt. Why did she have to survive that and go on for four. Whole. Books!? D:
Jul 18, 2009. 4:57 PMFrindledon3 says:
she was actually gonna write a fifth one from edwards point of view called midnight sun
Jul 18, 2009. 6:45 PMpunkmonkey123 says:
Because the books were horribly written.
Jul 26, 2009. 9:55 AMFrindledon3 says:

Aug 3, 2009. 7:47 AMpunkmonkey123 says:
Yes, they were. ;D
Oct 3, 2009. 7:41 PMslushy200 says:

Aug 3, 2009. 10:55 AMFrindledon3 says:
Have you even READ the books??????????????

Dude, haters gonna hate. Don't let them get to you. I have 5 points:
1: There is a lot of better writing out there
2: There is also a lot of worse writing out there
3: I have read the books, and I can say I was impressed with the concept, but not so much with the writing style.
4: Capital letters and excessive use of punctuation are never solutions to problems
5: Vampires do not sparkle

I guess this will work for a "Team VanHelsing" shirt too
Jan 10, 2009. 6:40 PMspiffytessa says:
I bought a t-shirt with the exact same design for $25 at Chapters... probably would last longer.
Jan 20, 2009. 6:12 PMmg0930mg says:
Or, you could buy fabric paint, for $2 readily available at any craft store.

It sprinkles in Forks - So you don't sparkle.
