In preparation for D-Land in a few weeks (once it cools off) Leena Lou and I made princess silhouette shirts. It's the cutest idea from Melissa at Honeyscrap. Don't you love her blog?
First, print a side profile pic of your favorite princess. Thank heaven for google image.
Cut it out
Pin it onto black fabric.
Get a t-shirt. We have an obsession with mens white v-necks. Like a pack of 5 is ten dollars at Target.
Iron the silhouette onto the shirt with Heat-n-Bond. This is important we discovered, otherwise the sewing is impossible!
Sew around the edge with black thread.
Add the finishing touches if you want to. I added a headband and a diamond earring. But it looked totally cute plain too.
Ta-da! I think I need to make some more. I don't want to leave any of the princesses out!
(And don't tell my mommy I didn't iron it.)

Great minds huh??!
It's such a cute idea! But please, give credit where credit is due. It looks like you saw this idea on honeyscrap on August 11th. Is that what inspired you?? I just want to make sure that we continue to give credit to the ones who think of these awesome ideas in the blog world! It's the couteous thing to do! :)
Above...I meant to say courteous! LOL The only reason I bring this up is because I am a fan of so many of these crafty blogs and they have all inspired me! I think it's important to let each other know when we've been inspired by an idea, rather than steal an idea and call it our own.
Thanks! Morgan L.
Hi Kirsi:)
First off I want to say thank you for sending me a link to your Cindy shirt:) I LOVE seeing what other ladies are making! And thank you for linking it to my blog:) I really appreciate it.
There are no hurt feelings at all over it:) I am so glad that it inspired you and your sister enough to make your own versions:) That is what I love about this blogging thing. We have a chance to really support other women and crafters:)
Sincerely, Melissa:)
PS---I also would LOVE to see your sister's Jasmine shirt!
