Step 1: What You'll Need.
You will need an old shirt and a few different cans of spray paint. (Flat of Ultra flat spray paint works the best). We decided to go with camoflage.
Step 2: Twisting the Shirt
Then, pinch the middle of the shirt and twist it into a spiral. Make sure all parts of the shirt are bunched up, then you're ready to apply the spray paint!
Step 3: Your First Color!
Cover the entire bunched up shirt in spraypaint, and let dry a few minutes and you've got your first layer.
Step 4: More Colors and More Paint!
For more spiral patterns, twist the shirt up in different places then apply different colors.
Step 5: Flip and Repeat!
Now flip the shirt over and do the same thing to the back...
