How to Create Custom Shirts With Bleach
This bleach staining process has been around for a number of years but has remained relatively unknown. The potential complexity and variety of images that can be made is virtually unlimited. More examples of what can be achieved and alternative staining methods can be found here: http://www.reddit.com/r/bleachshirts/
Things you'll need:
- Bleach
- Spray Bottle
- Cardboard
- Freezer Paper
- Iron
- X-acto Knife
- Dark Cotton Shirts
- Gloves
- Eye Protection
- Dust Mask or Respirator
Here are links to the first two designs used in the video:
