Do it your-self T-shirts

I have used the Pentel Fabric Fun pastel dye sticks (looks and acts like
crayons). The dye sticks are softer than crayons so you get more color on
your fabric. I find you need to mask the shirt, cloth bag, skit
background down (really stretch it) or you miss spots. Once set with
iron, the color may fade a little after repeated washing but it is
permanent. This would be an appropriate activity for Tigers or Wolfs. I
tried fabric paints with Wolfs, the kinds you squeeze out of the tube and
they just globbed on big gobs of it and it ran. Probably better for older
Scouts. We got plain white chef aprons at the local commercial Mop and
Pater towel store (for lack of a better name) for $3. The Scouts wear
them for messy projects over there uniforms and for cooking.
