Last Minute DIY Superman Shirt

October 22, 2014 By: Melanie

DIY Superman Shirt (4)

It’s Red Ribbon Week at my kids school which means every day has a fun theme for the kids to wear.  I love these kinds of things, despite what it adds to my ‘to-do’ list for the kids to participate.  Yesterday was Superhero day.  Ivie has a Spider man comic shirt— perfect!  Lila fits in a Super girl costume we dug out of the costume bin—perfect!  Anni  had a plain white t-shirt—perfect…..to turn into a Superman shirt!  We figured this out the night before….literally.  It really only took about 30 minutes too!   I thought this might be great to share with Halloween right around the corner.  Last minute costume ideas can be a life saver sometimes! DIY Superman Shirt (6)

 

Step 1:  Find and print a superman logo.

 Step 2:  Cut out along all the black lines, inside and out.

Step 3:  Trace the logo onto red felt, face down to avoid black marks on the finished product.

Step 4:  Cut out the felt logo.

Step 5: Hot glue the red logo onto some yellow fabric, or felt.  I happened to have a cut up yellow t-shirt that we glued ours onto.

Step 6: Cut out and hot glue the whole piece onto a piece of black felt.  This will make it more stable and also outline the logo perfectly.

Step 7:  Attach to a shirt.  Since we were literally last minute here, we just safety pinned the logo to the shirt.  Liquid Stitch would be the best choice for this whole project for a more permanent shirt, but for a last minute costume or special occasion use, hot glue is a gals best friend.  DIY Superman Shirt

 

Dun, dun, Dun!  DIY Superman Shirt (5)

We have had Red day, Super hero day, and Mis-match/backwards day.  We still have Sports day and of course Crazy hair day- always a crowd pleaser. 🙂  I’ve got some crazy hair researching to do!
