Step 3Setting up the Work Area
First you should lay out some sort of covering to protect your work surface from spills, drips, or other mishaps. I use newpaper and wax paper, but most any big piece of material will do.
Lay out your t-shirt flat and find a piece of cardboard roughly the same size as the area you want to paint. Put this inside the t-shirt, making sure it is centered and the material is not stretched. This will ensure that any paint that soaks through will not ruin the other layers of material.
Take a piece of scrap plastic and pour just a half dozen drops or so of each craft/fabric paint onto it. This sort of functions as a pallette.
