I purchased the t-shirts at Michael’s Craft Store for $3. Depending on the size of the image you’ll need between 30 to 90 seconds of pressing. Move the iron around until you’ve gone over the entire image. Press the images onto the t-shirt using the hottest setting on your iron and make sure to apply quite a lot of pressure with both hands. I also like to run a lint brush over the shirt to make sure there isn’t any laundry lint that could show through the images once they’re pressed on. In preparation for pressing your image, iron the t-shirt by itself to remove any wrinkles or moisture in the fabric. Cut the images as close to the edge of the images as possible making sure there is very little white space. My favorite brand of transfer paper is Avery. Use the normal or best ink setting on your printer for the best results. I used these same images for everything from the t-shirts to the favor bags and game pieces.īefore printing the image onto the transfer paper it’s a good idea to do a test run with a plain piece of paper to make sure it’s in the paper bin properly. While you can probably find minion goggle images on the internet, most are not available in a high enough resolution to enlarge for a t-shirt. I’ve had great luck finding images on Etsy. You’ll need the following supplies before you get started: cotton t-shirts, transfer paper for dark fabric if you decide to use yellow t-shirts, inkjet printer, lint brush, hot iron, scissors,wash and dry the t-shirts before getting started. I thought this game would be so easy for the kids, but surprisingly it was just the right amount of challenging! I recommend using blue painters tape so you can reuse the game later or even hang up the cute poster in your child’s room after the party!Ĭreating the poster was easy, we found an online image of Dave the Minion and had the image enlarged and printed at a large format printer. Our main party game was Pin the Goggles on the Minion. We played this just like any “pin the… game” but we replaced the traditional blindfold with Minion goggles! Each child was provided with a pair of cardboard goggles which they tried to “pin” to the minion!

Good thing we love DIY projects in our house! Since Elliot’s has a summer birthday we usually have traditional backyard parties, complete with games, a piñata and plenty of mayhem. Strap should measure about 11 (check to see if it fits snugly around head when attached to goggles). Fasten off and leave long end for sewing. Using black yarn, Ch 5, R1-63: Sc 4, ch 1, turn. Sew two goggles together (see pictures to see where). These days you can find lots of Minion party supplies in the stores, but the year we chose this theme there wasn’t much out there. Bend ends together and sew to form a circle.
