I’ve been eating a lot of nuts as of late. I love nuts, all kinds of nuts. My favorites include cashews and almonds. My least favorite nut is probably the peanut. I mean, they’re good if you haven’t had one for a long time, but after that, they become a bit boring. So what do you do when you’re stuck with 3 pounds of mixed nuts that include a lot of peanuts in the mix? Well, you play with them of course.
Day 17: The Peanut Shirt
So I didn’t get a chance to do the project that I had previewed on Day 15, only because I couldn’t find the materials that I needed in the colors that I wanted (damn you Wal-Mart)! So while I work on finding the goods, I give you this peace offering. It’s a piece of wallpaper based on the Pac-Shirt Postcard from Day 13. Enjoy!

The T-Shirt 365 project is free of charge, meaning, you can use the materials provided here as many times as you would like. However, I do ask that you DO NOT repost the actual project files on other websites. It would be better if you simply linked back to the particular blog post on my website! It’s good karma for you and it’ll make me super happy to see the linkback!
The goal of the project is to have enough material so that I can make a book encompassing the entire project. If all goes as planned, we’ll have something amazing available in 2012!
Here’s a little sneak peek of what I’ve got in store for you for (hopefully) Day 16’s Project365. You might be able to figure out what it is based on its shape. I’m not gonna tell you exactly what it is right now, but you’ll find out soon enough! Finally I get to use scissors again! Think you know what it is? Leave a comment!
Day 15: Project Idea Sketch
Here’s a little slogan, carried over from Day 13’s Project365. “Ditch The Tie. Wear A T-Shirt.” I like it. By the way, the image is sized 5″ x 6″, which makes it perfect for framing.

“Ditch the tie. Wear a T-Shirt.” is the motto for today’s Project365 item. I call it the Pac-Shirt Postcard. I actually came up with this idea during my recent trip to Los Angeles. Surrounded by tourist-y postcards, I realized that there was indeed a lack of T-Shirt themed postcards. Here’s my first attempt to remedy that situation.
I had a couple of ideas for the front of the postcard, but ultimately ended up going with a Pac-Man theme. In lieu of Pac-Man, we’ve got a makeshift T-Shirt Pac-Shirt and instead of ghosts, we have neck ties and bow ties – the ultimate T-Shirt adversary. Enjoy!
Note: the Pac-Shirt Postcard is sized according to standard shape and size guidelines according to the United States Postal Service. The card is 6” long X 4 1/4” high.

I had a few people request my Day 10 project (iPhone wallpaper) sized for their desktop computers and laptops. This was easy enough for me to do for my Day 12 project. Enjoy!

Growing up, I used to love doing origami. In fact, I believe that I still do have a box of origami supplies hidden somewhere in my old room at my parents house. All of my old origami projects should also be in that box! For today’s Project365, I turn an ordinary dollar bill into a T-Shirt. Unfortunately, you can’t wear this particular T-Shirt, but you can keep it in your wallet for good luck!
This Origami T-Shirt was inspired by a photo by Flickr member Vaguely Artistic.
To make you own Origami T-Shirt, please refer to these instructions by Clay Randall.
Day 11: Origami T-Shirt
Here’s the front of the T-Shirt. Nifty collar, huh?!
And here’s the back of the T-Shirt. Wouldn’t it be cool if the seal was on the front of the T-Shirt instead?
I’ve always loved haikus and so I thought, why not write one about T-Shirts? Plus, it was something that I could do quickly and easily during my vacation!
T-Shirts are real soft.
Some are fancy, some are not.
All have four big holes.
So today’s project was more like an “activity.” Since I’m in Los Angeles, I thought it was a must to check out the Johnny Cupcakes boutique on Melrose Avenue. Now, I’ve been to Johnny’s Boston shop on the swanky Newbury St. in Boston. This shop seemed a bit bigger than the Boston shop. I picked up a couple of tees that I’ve been wanting to pick up for some time now, including the iconic white and black Crossbones T-Shirt.
If you do decide to stop by Johnny Cupcakes on Melrose Avenue then I would suggest that you also cross the street and check out the Kid Robot and Loyal Army Shops. You’ll find a ton of trendy T-Shirts there as well.
Now, go buy some T-Shirts!
*I’ll also be doing a separate post covering my visit to Johnny Cupcakes in Los Angeles, complete with photos of the shop! Check back for that.

So like I mentioned in the last post, the next couple Project365 posts will be pretty simple and not at all very crafty. This is because I’m on vacation in Los Angeles, having fun, eating as much as I can and trying to hunt down Mr. M. Mouse! So I’ll be doing simple things like photos and other small stuff that I can do on the computer. How was a supposed to pack a pair of scissors on my carry-on luggage?! Today’s project was quite simple to do and I thought would be perfect for those of you following this big project of mine.
