A Funny Rip Off

Twas the night before pre-Breyerfest and at 1 in the morning, I decided that I was finished. The house was quiet, and the only ones who were stirring were the cats and me (the cats can hang). My packing was done,  models were safe, and was phone was charging.
I realized that there was a science to packing that I had not mastered, mostly because my floor was filled with bags and the smallest one was made of clothes.
So here is the list:
How I packed:
-Wait until the night before
-Throw clothes in a bag, praying that something matches
-Bring every electronic owned
-Don’t worry about DVDs because Netflix will have everything,  plus who will ever be at the hotel anyway? It’s Breyerfest!
-Bring snacks,  aka sugar
-Bring more than than could ever be needed because, why leave a car half empty?

My very bad rip off of The Night Before Christmas, but it’s 1 am. :) Hope to see some of you at Breyerfest!  :)

My sister made a t-shirt yesterday using a technique that was different from Silk Screening. So today I tried it out since it would be cool to have a studio tshirt. I used this how-to as a reference, and even though it dealt with words it is easy to apply to other shapes and designs. I also used my sister.

Before starting I made a pattern design.

Then I traced it onto the matte side of freezer paper.

Cut it out.

Ironed it onto the shirt.

Dabbed in the color I wanted.

Peeled it off, and done! So if you see a person wearing this shirt next week, it’s me!

The only con to this way of doing it is the pattern lasting, which is much shorter than silkscreening. But this is great for one time use.
