    Trace the Batman logo (that is attached) on a piece of freezer paper

  2. Cut out the bat and the 'oval' (mine was about 1/2 cm wide)

    Iron the freezer paper on the t-shirt

  4. Now place a piece of cardboard in the t-shirt (so the back of the shirt will not get stains)

  5. Go and bring it outside (put on some gloves as well - safety first)

    Spray the bleach on the shirt around and on the freezer paper, you can add some bigger drops for a more dramatic look

  7. Now let the bleach do it's work - especially in the sun it goes very fast!

  8. When you are satisfied with the decolorization, wash the shirt with some detergent until it doesn't smell like bleach anymore
