Instructions

1. 

   STEP 1: First prepare your t-shirt - lay out onto a flat area and tape it down around the edges. (the red lines are tape)

2. 

   STEP 2: Then apply a layer of PVA glue all over the non-covered area then leave to dry. (grey square = pva)

3. STEP 3: Repeat step 2 until the t-shirt is hard and ridged.

4. 

   STEP 4: Apply your image and cover in PVA. Again repeat step 2.

5. STEP 5: Now for the back, i left mine white but you could apply another image or some decorative paper. then cover in PVA.

6. 

   STEP 6: Once it has dried completely cut out the image either with scissors or a craft knife. find the spot where you would want the chain and carefully pierce a big enough hole for the chain then attach the chain to the key ring ring. And you are finished. :3
