Making A T-Shirt

Let’s turn a simple T-shirt into a colorful work of art! First, choose a coloring page template that suits your taste and the message of Red Ribbon Week you want to convey. Start coloring from large areas, then move to small details.

Color in a certain direction to get an even and beautiful color. Let the color dry completely before continuing to color other areas. Print the image on transfer paper and place it on a plain T-shirt. The final result should be similar to the image below.

If you want, you can fold some of the shapes to create a 3D effect. Glue the decorations onto a large piece of cardboard in a certain layout. You can create overlapping layers to create depth. Ask people to share photos taken with your backdrop.

Decorating Your Doors

You choose a theme that suits the age and audience you want to target. Red is the primary color of Red Ribbon Week, but you can combine it with other colors, such as green, yellow, and orange, to create highlights and freshness. After coloring and cutting out the details, stick the decorations directly on the door, forming blocks or letters to create highlights.

You can refer to the images you provide for ideas. For example, you can develop the idea by adding drawings of the earth’s fresh flowers from the image of the door with colorful hands to express a message about environmental protection and healthy living.
