stencil a t-shirt with a custom freezer paper stencil (2008)

2022 UPDATE: This tutorial was created in 2008 while making a t-shirt for a swap. I didn't have a mic at the time, so all instructions are in text during the video. This is still a super fun and easy way to create stencils if you don't have a Cricut or other cutting machine.

The song is "Vampire" by People in Planes. It was free to use on YouTube when I originally created this video. Sound isn't necessary, so please feel free to mute it if you'd like the song.

Freezer paper is usually found with plastic wrap, aluminum foil, etc. I buy it at my supermarket. You can also find it online. Sticky-backed vinyl or contact paper will also work.
