    Hi everypony! I made this tutorial for the people that requested it. Anyway here We Go! (find pics in the attachments bar)
    Materials: 1 Colored Shirt/T-shirt
    1 Clorox Bleach Pen
    1 large roll of contact paper
    1 Exacto Knife

    How to make a Stencil:
    So to Start You are going to need a Stencil. So Find Any Picture on the internet you want Then Put it into a Image Editor. Next Make the backround complete White and The Image Completely black (like a black silhouette on a white backround). Theres Your Stencil. Now Make it Whatever Size You Want it to Be Then Print It.

    How to bleach the shirt:
    Next Tape your printed picture to your contact paper. Find a Exacto Knife and start cutting out the black image out the paper. When your done you should have only the white part of the paper and the contact paper underneath. Next untape the white paper from the contact paper.(also put a piece of cardboard in the shirt where your going to bleach) Peel the Other side(Sticky Side) off of the contact paper and stick the sticky part wherever you want it on the shirt. Next Press down the sticky side, flattening the edges, then take out your bleach pen. Rub the bleach pen all around the shirt piece you want to bleach untill its all covered. Leave the piece sitting somewhere for 20-30 min. or longer. There Your done. Wash in cold water.

    Im sorry if this tutorial was abit confusing. Ask questions if you want to. If your having alot of trouble search Bleach pen tShirt on youtube.

    Contact paper is thick and sticky on one side. It's the sort of thing that you line the inside of drawers with. Basically using the contact paper, you'd be making a sticker of your stencil.
