wheel on to a new adventure;-D
i had made presents for to say goodbye to my woman helpers and friends, but they were too girly to give them to men helpers and friends.
so... i made this manhood version,
One of them is fond of VW vans, he is of my age, and had told me a story that he found a hippy version of a vw van in Italy, on the last day of his vacation he would buy it.
but too bad, it was an italian holliday and ... he only could give it behind the window a good look.LOL
So i thought i will make a VW van for him, i found a knitting pattern, but... Gerard said to me, Jet you don't have the time for it.
So make something that yo can give others as well.
With sorting things out i found a nice picture of a vw van with a rocking band inside it.
I thought wooow this is what i can use.
Making the picture more costumized and prettier costed me the most time.
But i'm glad that i have made it, i think i will use it for more things...
note:
if you will make a picture of your own and will print it on transfer paper for tshirts , make the picture much lighter and first make a small print to test it.
The time is without the designing time.
i have forgotten to add grommets and grommet tool by the list of you will need!!!
You may use mine image design but please use it just for your own, not for selling.
And... if you want to use it for a good cause just ask me for permission;-D
I hope you like this and got inpiration of it to make your own versions , just have fun and be creative and crafty;-D
thank you for stopping by;-D
