apple tee



ok, so the phone/camera doesnt perform so well at night.

I got Esme a T-shirt in her school house colours today (it was really cheap) only green girls tees are hard to find, and I thought it was a nice green. When I showed her she screwed up her nose and said 'its plain', so I said what do you want on the front (...imagining a nice applique or somesuch). she said, "an apple, a green apple...where is the t-shirt paint..." and off she went. So I found the green paint, told her to remember to do it nice and big, and this is what she did. I tidied up the edges of her lines so they were nice and crisp, and painted the leaf "just there (pointing)".

pretty good joint effort I reckon.

Obviously, you are one talented family! Your children are now used to the fact that if something is not quite to their liking, mummy can help them create something more interesting.

Cool .....
Esme really knows how to make a tee shirt look very funky!
She clearly takes after her mother. A brave mother at that, letting her daughter loose with the fabric paint ! - love julia x

Wow ~ at first glance i thought that was a printed t shirt ~ that you bought it with the motif on! I'm impressed.
From a fellow GREEN HOUSE GIRL! I was rubbish at sports day. I won all the races in Primary one, but after that, it wen't down hill!
