What You'll Need:

1 light purple T-shirt
110 aqua blue faceted faux jewels, 6mm each
Newspaper
Waxed paper
Jewel glue

Sugar and Spice Jewel Craft
Give your little
angel a new shirt.

  1. Wash and dry the T-shirt before starting this project. Do not use any fabric softeners. Read glue packaging for care instructions.

  2. Cover your work surface with newspaper or an old tablecloth. Insert a piece of waxed paper inside the T-shirt to prevent glue from seeping through to the back of the shirt.

  3. Before you start gluing on the jewels, practice your "Angel" design on the T-shirt. Make sure all the letters will fit!

  4. Once you're happy with how the jewels look on the shirt, lift 1 jewel at a time, dot a small amount of glue on the shirt, and press each one into the glue.

  5. Let the glue dry completely before handling or wearing.

Try this!

Try coming up with other cool sayings to put on the T-shirts, like "Princess," "Cutie Pie," or "Sweetheart." You could also use the jewels to make cool designs, such as a daisy, a heart, or a butterfly. Use your imagination!
