Coldplay--->Paint Splatter T-Shirts

Back in December Kenzie, our great friend Amber, and I all bought tickets for a concert in Chicago. The band is Coldplay. Maybe some of you have heard of them, maybe not. They are THE BEST, in my personal opinion. My favorite band for many years. We leave in a week and we couldn't be more excited. It's all of our first live concert to see.
We used neon fabric paint because Coldplay's newest album cover is very bright and florescent.
Black shirts were also an obvious choice so the paint would stand out more.

To get a better splatter effect we mixed a SMALL amount of water with the paint. Enough to make it a little thicker then the consistency of milk.
Stir everything together with your fingers then flick it all over the shirt. You can use a spoon or paint brush or whatever but I have always found that getting your hands a little dirty makes it a lot more fun.

  1. It seems like this blog hasn't been updated in a while, but I wanted to say thank you for this post! I'm seeing Coldplay tomorrow in New York, and used this method to decorate my own tshirt for the event!
