You’ll need:

tee shirt
Tulip Glitter Fabric Spray paint in gold
Tulip Spray Dye -Green
Small paper heart doilies (available at the grocery store)
Krylon Easy-Tack Repositionable Spray
scrap paper and scissors

Make sure you’ve got some newspapers or plastic bags handy to catch any overspray and protect your work surface. It’s also nice to have a piece of cardboard- the cereal box kind is fine- to put inside the t-shirts to keep the spray from seeping through.

Start off by peeling off 4 paper heart doilies (or cut your own) and spray them with the repositionable adhesive spray. Arrange them in a 4-leaf clover. Using your scissors and scrap paper, cut a “j”shape to act as the shamrock stem. Spray that with the adhesive spray and place on the tee as well.

Spray doilies with Repositionable Adhesive so that the paint doesn’t seep underneath.

Using the green Fabric spray, mist the front of the tee shirt well. Here’s a tip: if you depress the nozzle about halfway, you’ll get splatters- a full pump of the nozzle gives you a mist. I like a bit of both!

Let your tee shirt dry a bit, then peel off the doilies to reveal the negative-space shamrock. Then go over the whole tee again, using the gold glitter fabric spray, especially on the shamrock area.
