Dia de los Muertos is November 1st and 2nd and party planning is
already in heavy action! If you're looking for a super cool party favor
to hand out to your guests, I have the perfect idea!
Mini-silkscreens!
Think
about it, everyone can take home a mini-DIY kit and can celebrate Dia
de los Muertos in their own artful way with their own cutemini-screen.
To make it even easier for you, I'm including printable graphics that
you can download to use (for personal use only).
Supplies:
Tulip ScreenIt
Tulip ScreenIt Screen
Crafty Chica's Dia de los Muertos Skull Pattern Printable (for personal use only)
Crafty Chica's Printable labels
Fabric swatches
Mini-tubes of Tulip Fabric Soft Paint
Polybags
Stapler
Burn the design on the screen according to manufacturer's directions. (I have a video tutorial here)
Print and cut your labels, get the bags and paint ready.
Cut up the images, make sure to leave a border around the edges for them to add paint.
If you want, you can print a sample on a fabric swatch OR you can insert a blank swatch so they can do it themselves later.
Put all the goodies in the bag, you can also add a little paper with
directions if you want. Let them know to rinse their screen after each
use so they can use it over and over on fabric, paper, lots of other
surfaces too!
Put them all together in a bowl! You can have a silkscreen activity at
your party, or they can take them to go. IDEA: You can do this same
concept for all kinds of events and parties. Maybe burn a silhouette of
your party guest, or a name, etc. The screen is big enough that you can
cut out multiple designs.
Oh my word this is brilliant, what a great party idea...each guest can make their own shirt,bag,or whatever with one of these kits.
