I didn't pay enough attention to the part about misting the straight bleach on. I read "dumped" and went with it. So, I rolled it on with my very-full-of-bleach foam roller. It got all under my design. Luckily it stayed within the outer square I was making. I will now do the fabric paint in my bleached square. I WILL be trying with bleach again.

The 95/5 work fine. It's the 60/40 and the 50/50 that don't work. HTH!

When I did this, the part I bleached turned the bleachy pink color, not lightened the color of the shirt. What did I do wrong? :-(

We needed "Peace Day" shirts for my kids and I took old t-shirts, stuffed with cardboard and used a q-tip dipped in bleach to write on them (Peace, symbols, etc.) and the q tip worked awesome.

Not bad for my first try!

I just dabbed it over the stencil. It was easier than using regular bleach beacause it's thicker, more like a paste. I was afraid the bleach would run and get onto an area of the clothing that I didn't want it to. Yours turned out great though!

Well, not the same. But with freezer paper. And bleach. And that's about the end of the similarities.
But I like yours!

All the tutorials I have seen were different than that, leaving the speckles of bleach to spread around the shirt. I like this cleaner method.

We used it in our college costume shop & I've used it at home many times, works really well. You do have to wash w/ detergent afterward to remove the odor.

I'd seen the freezer paper for paint before, but not bleach, how cool.

But was there an explosion or not? Because if so, why didn't you get a picture of that?!

This turned out awesome! I have my freezer paper which I use all the time to protect my counter when doing paint & Mod Podge projects.

Thank for sharing what worked and didn't for you…always so helpful. I have been thinking about making something like this for my little one's 3rd b-day…may just have to try it:)

The grocery store I was in only had this HUGE roll, meaning I'd have to do it again and again and again :)
BTW, I saw one tut. where they put a piece of freezer paper behind the shirt and ironed that on, to protect the back of the shirt. I once used contact paper to do a stencil (wish I'd know about freezer paper then) and did the way you did with the cardboard. If I ever do it again, I will iron freezer paper on back instead.
Thanks.
