EDWARD SCISSORHANDS GRANNY PANTIES

I bought a package of granny panties on clearance at Walmart and decided to try to jazz them up and make them less granny like. On this one, I used a stencil of Edward Scissorhands from this site:
(NOTE: Ask the creator permission prior to using this stencil and let her know you are wanting it for personal use)
Items used:
1 pr. panties (approx $1)
2 printouts of Edward Scissorhands stencil (.10 cents)
Scissors
Black Fabric Paint
Black Glitter Fabric Paint
Paintbrush
I cut the picture out then laid it on the panties, then painted with black paint. I then removed it and tried to fix the face and painted "Edward Scissorhands" above the stencil in black glitter paint and scissor hands over the wording.
My son the creation on the table and said it looked more liked a goth Ronald McDonald than Edward Scissorhands; even so, better than plain granny panties.
As the details on the face are very fine, I would suggest not cutting out that area completely and after stenciling the rest of the body and removing the stencil, use another picture to look at and fill in the fine facial details without the stencil.

EDWARD SCISSORHANDS FAUX STENCILLED NOTEBOOK

I made this as a present for my son and he got a big kick out of it as he recently saw the movie for the first time and loved it.
Cost: 50 cents
Time: 10 minutes
Items used:
  • 1 spiral bound notebook
  • 1 printout of Edward Scissorhand stencil and two sets of the words "Edward Scissorhands"
  • 1 Glue stick
  • 10 small bottle of black glitter fabric paint (you could just use glitter glue)
I decorated a plain black notebook with a printout of an Edward Scissorhands stencil from the following site:
(I asked and received permission from the creator prior to using, if you decide to use the stencil, please contact her first to obtain permission).
I was pressed for time and did not have time to cut out and stencil the picture onto a separate sheet of paper; instead, I printed the stencil out then went over the black areas of the stencil and the wording with the black glitter fabric paint to give it dimension and the appearance of being stencilled.
