Lego Star Wars Shirts

I can't believe my first baby turned 5 last month.  Logan wanted a Lego Star Wars birthday party, so I make some shirts for the family to wear.  It was my first time using freezer paper stencils and they are so easy!

I searched for Lego images for various characters.  Logan chose his favorites - R2D2 and C3P0.  Simone's shirt has Princess Leia and an Ewok, Fred's has Chewbacca and Han Solo in Carbonite and my shirt has Yoda.

I just traced around the images and cut out the stencils.


Ironed them on to the shirt.

Painted

Waited....

Done!
 



For Han Solo in Carbonite, I used 2 layers of gray paint.  I think it turned out pretty nicely.  Next time, I need to make sure the freezer paper is sticking properly.  The paint ended up bleeding through the Ewok hood.  And, from the excess splatters, I was a bit paint happy.
