Easy Art Smock

Of course, if you have the funds, there are a ton of adorable art smocks available. Like these...

$30.00/Set


$10.00


You can even find matching mommy and me sets, but there is an affordable option ANYONE can do in three EASY steps!

(1) Find an old adult t-shirt.
(2) Place it flat on a table-front of shirt down.
(3) Take a pair of scissors, and cut a slit in the middle of the shirt, from the hem all the way up to the neck. The slit should just be through the back side of the shirt. The front should be intact. Try to be as straight as you can, but it won't matter if you don't do a perfect job!

Now, even your youngest artist can easily get ready to paint. Have them simply slide their arms into the shirt, so that it looks normal from the front (like putting on a vest backwards). It will stay on just fine and can be washed with your regular laundry loads (when needed)! This works great in preschool and daycare classes too!

Enjoy your day!
