Solar Eclipse T-Shirts

It’s not too late to make a shirt to celebrate the Solar Eclipse on Monday. Just use a plain shirt you already own. I happened to have a collection of fabric paints, so I went to my local craft store and bought some shirts. We sketched some designs, I traced them onto large pieces of paper that I then put under the shirt, and then we traced that with paint. My 13-year-old free-handed his own shirt, but I traced my 11-year-old’s sketch so that the final product matched his design. Here’s what we came up with.

It’s a great time to get punny. Some suggestions from random fandoms and beyond:

  • That’s No Moon
  • Cosmic Showdown 2017
  • Come to the Dark Side
  • Not Today, Sunny
  • Here Comes the Sun
  • Wait For It
  • You’ll Be Back

Don’t forget to stock up on Sun Chips, Mooncakes, and Oreos. And your safety glasses.

“When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. Think of it, always.” – Mahatma Gandhi (from the movie, Gandhi)
