DIY Bobba Fett Sweater

My husband wanted to make a sweater for our local baseball team's STAR WARS NIGHT since it was going to be freezing. Of course he decide it the afternoon of the game.

This was a speed project, took about 1 hour total.

1. He printed the images using a dark iron on transfer.

2. We cut our pieces of flannel for the chest plates. He used a template he found on the internet.

3. I pinned and sewed the fabric in place. I used a rough zig zag stitch since Bobba Fett is known for being damaged and rough, I didn't want it too look to neat and clean.

4. The final step my husband ironed on the images.

Bleach Shirts

My son is obsessed with the show Octonauts but you can't find the anything to buy in the store because its based in the UK. My husband got the great idea to make him a shirt using a bleach technique. He printed out the picture he wanted using freezer paper. Cut it out the image so that it was revered and the image was the only part of the shirt showing. He then ironed it onto the shirt. Using bleach in a spray bottle he sprayed the image. Once you remove the freezer paper, you can see that the areas you bleached are a different color then the rest of the shirt. Step 1: Print our image you want Step 2: Cut out the image, leaving the outline Step 3: Iron on to shirt Step 4: Using bleach in a spray bottle, spray the area of the shirt showing, inside the outline Step 5: Peel of freezer paper Step 6: Rinse and let dry It came out great!

Octoanuts Birthday Party

For my son's 4th Birthday he decided he wanted an Octonaut birthday party. We had so much fun making all the decorations for this party. Most of the ideas came from Pinterest or my husband's crazy thinking :) Pin the Eye Patch on Kwazii Homemade Octonaut Hats Applesauce Kelp Cakes My husband created wooden cutouts for photos, we decoupaged images on we printed from the website. Our local Gerritys grocery store made a Octopod Cupcake Cake from a design I created. We added gummy sharks and M&Ms for more details. My husband made a Jello Snotblob because my son is obsessed with the Christmas Octonaut episode.
