DIY :: Halloween Skeleton Baby Maternity Shirt

written by Natalie Ho 2012.10.29

With Halloween just around the corner, what are you dressing up as? I won’t be partaking in Halloween this year (first year in awhile!) due to a busy travel and work schedule, but that didn’t stop me from creating something for Halloween! I decided to make my expecting sister  a maternity shirt for her Trick or Treat night out this year. It was so much fun making this shirt, partly because I’m super excited to meet my baby nephew.

Read further for step by step instructions on how to make this fun and simple Halloween DIY project! Alternatively, you can buy a similar version from here.


What you will need:
  • A t-shirt. I opted for a long sleeve black shirt from H&M (it was only $12.95) but you can use any colour!
  • Aleene’s Jewel-It glue (you can purchase at a local art supplies store or here)
  • Fabric glue (I used a spray paint version from Tulip, you can purchase at local art supplies store or here)
  • A think paint brush
  • Make up sponges
  • Plate or container to hold paint
  • A handful of pink sequins
  • Exacto Knife
  • Pencil/Marker
  • Paper (have some thicker ones on hand or parchment paper works too)

DIY Halloween Skeleton Baby Maternity Shirt - How To
Start by drawing out your skeleton shape onto a piece of paper with pencil. When you’re happy with it, trace over with a marker so you can see it clearly. Alternatively, if you don’t want to draw your shape from scratch, download my drawing here.

Then cut out your shape with an exacto knife. Be sure to line with a piece of foam board or cardboard so that you don’t cut into your working surface.

I then laid the stencil over a piece of coloured, thicker paper and cut out the shape again. This is what I’ll be using to do the actual stencil painting onto the shirt. You can also use parchment paper, but I find it really thin to cut from. I also picked a coloured piece of paper because it helps me see the white paint when I apply the paint.
DIY Halloween Skeleton Baby Maternity Shirt - Stencil
Lay your skeleton stencil on top of your shirt and tape it down. I also taped my shirt onto my working surface to prevent it from moving around. Be sure to line the inside of your shirt as well to prevent paint from seeping through.
DIY Halloween Skeleton Baby Maternity Shirt - Apply
Pour some of your fabric paint onto a disposable plate. Use a sponge to get some paint and pat the excess off. I used a make up sponge, it worked well as it doesn’t have as many spongy holes in it. Work your way from top to bottom and making sure that you press the stencil down as you’re working your way around the edges. Repeat this 3 to 4 times (depending on your fabric glue), leaving some room to dry in between applications.
DIY Halloween Skeleton Baby Maternity Shirt - Paint
Continue with the baby feet stencil (I didn’t include a template as I feel you should be creative with this part!). Once again apply paint 3 to 4 times.

Wait half hour for the paint to dry, and remove the stencils from the shirt. Go over with a paint brush to create more definition and fill in any gaps you may have.
DIY Halloween Skeleton Baby Maternity Shirt - Paint Brush
Create the heart by applying a thin layer of Jewel It glue as shown in the picture below.

Use a tweezer to apply a layer of sequins onto the glue, overlap sequins to cover the entire surface of the heart and let dry.

Wait 4 hours for paint and glue to dry before wearing. Follow instructions on your paint and glue bottle for washing and wearing directions. There you have it!!!

I am really enjoying the theme/design of your site.
Do you ever run into any web browser compatibility problems?
A handful of my blog readers have complained about my
website not working correctly in Explorer but looks great in Firefox.
Do you have any recommendations to help fix this problem?

Between your wit aand your videos, I was almost moved to start my own bpog (well, almost…HaHa!) Great job.

When I initially commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment
is added I get several emails with the same comment.
Is there any way you can remove people from
that service? Many thanks!

It’s better to state that there isn’t all the answers and you also need
time for it to sort things out. Around on this occasion, someone will mention ‘progress reports,’.
It promotes emotional balance, the roll-out
of new memories of once feared situations, empowers the sufferer to
go out with courage, to aim new challenges and also the
programme is designed in easily understandable language; it is also super easy
to do. The more she doesnt cum, the harder the thought of having sexual intercourse along gets to be a chore.
9% in November, that is the more affordable choice, she says.

To enter in the console mode, similar on the chat
mode used inside the Warcraft and Starcraft series, hit the ~ (tilde) key.
The world condemns Israel yet does absolutely nothing to stop genocide in Rwanda.

What when the best way you have access to there was to first
believe it can be even there to begin with with. Aside all the excitement within the finishing the book, I find myself FREAKING OUT at all of the issues that are mounting up on my small
to-do list. of BNC cable for connecting your camera for
the DVR or with a RCA connector to hook up to your
TV including a power adapter and protection stickers. I still haven’t figured out but my
theory is that we have been both very cautious by nature.
After discovering your uniqueness and spending some
time acquainting yourself with all of the contributing elements, you’ll start to reflect on the deeper
level. You should not maintain a relationship using a man who has no respect on your wishes or your judgment.
Also Ed Balls is more relucant to criticise Gordon Brown’s
terrible record of total financial mismanagement than Ed Miliband.
8%; 1 to 2 months, industrial producer prices rose 5. Renting a neighborhood dumpster, at
the greatest price, can be a superb choice. I advise that you place him within an outdoor shack
and hang up the safety rating to a few so
that he can’t just wander out. Basically, once it really is
installed, there isn’t much left to do, except look at web with less anxiety about ending up in a phishing or spyware
laden site. While the co-commander often does things on his or her
own, in this case, you must direct your ally to consider on the defensive guns closest to
him. Val knew his Mother would have been a smarty pants anf the
husband paid attention to her advice all his life.
This is the place a little sensitive child might experience a warm caress.
But if doing work in excess could possibly be associated using sadness in addition to boringness.
I’ll be going back soon to check your situation. The first action for many who suffer recurrent yeast infections is usually to
use a doctor evaluate you for proper diagnosis and to make sure that there isn. When shes coming over a regular basis, then her clit cant wait
to become touched.
