My clown-ish short pants that I have been stenciling are coming a long nice. I have been cutting stars out of contact paper and using that them as stencils to paint the stars on my pants. The next projects that I want to stencil are a bit bigger and more complexed. There are other stenciling methods like cutting them out of heaver plastic then spraying that with stenciling glue. The warnings on the can are to scary for me to use this so there is a nother method. You can cut the stencil out of freezer or wax paper and iron on to the fabric. I am going to buy some freezer paper today. I already have some wax paper.

It is from a real stone carving or something of a Toltec juggling. It was used for some juggling festival up there by you somewhere sherlew. The original only had two balls they added the third.

I bought some freezer paper today but they only had one size roll and I ended up have to pay about $6. It says about using it for stencils on the box.

I looked it up. It was on a poster for the Portland Juggling Festival '94 poster. Here's a link to the article I found. It has other juggling photos as well. link

I plan on trying it with wax paper also. Stenciling stars on my clown shorts is taking a long time.

A store in your town should have one. They tend to be popular. What I would do is either look the stores up on line or just give them a call. Those online should be able to indicate whether the item would be available locally.

I work on my clown shorts every nite and some times twice a day. I haven't screwed them up yet. The process is simple enough it is just taking a long time. I washed the red T-shirt that I am going to use with either the freezer or wax paper last night. I will try an buy an iron on Wednesday.

That's pretty cheap. Hope it works well for you.

I hope that it works to. I came up with a way to help with tracing the patterns. I will use one of our clear clipboards so light can shine through from underneath.
