not so much band merch OR Green Day, but I say it counts so xP

the band highly enjoyed them, too.

That is just WIN. Really awesome! :D

So here they are. it was my first try ever on fabric. I've only done hard objects before. (sorry about the boob shots)

first one i made. Meh, it was alright. Picture gets kind of streched when i put i on.

Those are great! Especially the shoe one. I've been thinking about painting Green Day related things on my converse for some time.. I should get acrylic paint now :)

sorry for the poor quality photo.

it was a camera phone.

and they are really old and dirty.

XD

I really don't want to be annoying and trying to do the mods job or whatnot, but you're not supposed to quote image tags. it makes the page huge and laggy :(

But other than that, I agree with you. those shirts look freaking awesome :)

First of all: Amazing what you've all done!

How did you do the stencil? Sorry, if it's astupid question, but if I do personalize my converse, then I kinda only have one shot, and I don't want to ruin it.

Thanks! :aww: Naw, it's not a stupid question. I made the stencil out of like this weird hard plastic that's a stencil material that you can buy at craft stores (I forget the name\brand of it) It comes as sheets, like paper but it's plastic. And I just print or draw out what I want to make a stencil of on normal paper, lay the plastic over top to trace it with Sharpies, and then the best thing to cut it out with is an Exacto knife. The one I use is kind of like a metal stick with the blade at the end so it's really easy to use. :) So when all my stencils were made, I stapled them onto my Converse and used really fine brushes and toothpicks to paint them. It was a pain in the butt to staple the stencils onto my shoes and remove them, but was the best way to make sure that it stayed in place and was even.

Well, you could always practice the stencil on like some scrap fabric or something if you're afraid that you might mess up.

Hey, since I don't really like Green Day's Merch, I wanted to do my own T-Shirt, and thought that you guys could be my inspiration :D

So if you've made yourself some Merch, you can show here.

Here's a design that saraHsunshine and I came up with (printed by a contact of Abbey has in Warrenton, Virginia). We sold about 20 of them and sent three to the band. :)
