So here goes. Live, love, recycle and get crafting.

Day 318 - A pantsformation


The true title for this blog post should be 'What not to do with transfers'. It all began with a plain pair of black size 1 stretchy pants and some transfers. From there it seemed to go from bad to worse.

First I put the iron straight onto a transfer, transfer ruined, iron not so good either. Then I chose a different set of transfers that I thought were separate transfers but they were one big one so when I cut it out crudely and ironed it on it looked ridiculous. After another hour or so of trying to work out how to fix it I settled on transferring on top of a transfer, which didn't work out too badly. Whew!



Melted transfer - first mistake.


These 2 cuties were supposed to be one on each side.


Badly cut out transfer :-(


Transfer over transfer.

The recipient!



What to do next - go outside and bathe in wet sand for a bit.
