About
Make an easy and unique autumn/winter themed T-shirt.
I made this top for my granny and I used her favourite leaves (beech leaves) but this works for any kinds of leaves. This could also be done on a light coloured top with paint, but I love the effect that the bleach gives.

Step 1
Collect some leaves. Different shapes and sizes look really good.
-
Step 2
Lay your black t-shirt out on the table with the cardboard in the middle of the area you want to print on so it doesn't bleed through to the other side.
-
Step 3
pin the top so that you can only see the area you want to print on.
-
Step 4
mix the bleach with a little water and then paint the veiny side of the leaf (older ones have more prominent veins) with a generous layer of bleach.
-
Step 5
push lightly on to the T-shirt (or firmly, depending on the look you want) take off and then wait for the orange colour of the print to come through.
-
Step 6
repeat step 5 until you have the look that you want.
-
Step 7
leave to dry and it is ready for wearing.
