day one hundred and twelve: 361

'work with bleach to make something by taking away color.'

i LOVE using bleach pens to draw on shirts. i have a sweatshirt that i wear all the time that i drew a henna-like design all over it. i wanted to make something i would actually wear so i drew a snail and messed up the perfect lines and then splattered more bleach all over it. it started changing color fast so i snapped a picture. i will leave it on a little longer, wash it and post another picture. this is a fun activity for kids too (if they don't squeeze the pen too tight)!

  1. Wowie, that's clever. I'm going to have to try it some time. I'm sort of becoming "spider girl" and "spider lady" to some of my friends. Are you having the same thing happen with snails? I might need to make some clothing with spiders on it.
