Dino-Mite T-shirts!
My youngest daughter’s daycare does theme days each Wednesday. This week the theme was dinosaurs. I was super excited because Claire didn’t have anything dinosaur themed so I knew craft time was coming! Now, for those who know me you know I am a procrastinator, but this time I vowed to do better. I designed the layout in Cricut design space and cut the design out of heat transfer vinyl on my Cricut Explore. I used vinyl and a shirt that I had in my stash…Yay me!
Anyhoo, back to the story…so in my quest to fulfill one of my New Year resolutions (being timely) I finished the shirt in record time. Claire was super excited about her new shirt and was making dinosaur sounds all the way to school (’cause that’s what two year olds do). 😉
We walked into the building and got oohs and ahhs from the staff and she was grinning from ear to ear. However, what happened next was not as funny.
One of the staff members said, “Oh, I love your dinosaur shirt Claire, but dino day is tomorrow”! Wait, what!? Tomorrow!? The staff member looked at me with understanding (and some sympathy) and said, “You can just wash it and let her wear it again tomorrow”. I thought, yeah…I could, but where is the fun in that!? So…we made another top with a little more bling!
P.S. Next time I do a “bling” shirt I’ll be sure to use either darker vinyl or a darker shirt so that everything “pops”!
Toodles!
