T-shirt transfer paper for your printer and an iron are your friends

I made a bag of songs all about the number 5 for my son's teacher when she left our school at the end of last year with several of these mitts in it and it was so easy to do. Just made up an image to transfer onto the bag from clip art I found on the web, printed it out and ironed it on

I cant draw either Sarah but went to an art workshop and learnt a cool trick hee hee

simple really but trace the image you want on the bag then put it inside the bag make sure you have enough light then trace the image again onto the bag .... pretty cool simple and now all i need are bags lol as i am using old pillow cases at the moment.
