We have a small watercolor in our dining area of a front porch facing
the beach. It has an American flag, a rocking chair and a child's pail
and shovel. We bought it because the pail and shovel. There's something
very appealing about a child's pail and shovel sitting someplace, like
on the back of your shirt. If you go with the pail shovel and
footprints, I think you should have some foot prints coming away from it
as well,it would look like the child put it down to go in the water.

I was also thinking about having the crab somewhere in
there, and suddenly having the footprints *much* farther
apart....

Wow, I missed all the fun! ;-) Great job you did with the shirt. And I, too,
like the idea of the footprint story, shovel, pail, crab and all.
Why the backs of shirts aren't decorated very often? Well, depending on the
form of decoration it can become quite uncomfortable if you sit in a chair
with a back for a little longer (driving miles in your car with elaborate
beading in your back might be a slight pain, I imagine), but otherwise -
yes, we are three-dimensional creatures! ;-)
I really wonder why folks still use bleach with their washing. AFAIK, modern
detergents have a good measure of brightners already, at least those for
normal washing and here in Germany. I don't use any desinfectant on my
cutting boards, either, because they are all made from wood. Handled
properly (clean with normal dishwater right after use, let dry properly) the
wood is said to take care of the microorganisms on its own. We never had any
problems at all in all those years. Of course, plastic boards are a
different matter, or so I've heard. And isn't it very bad for the
environment? Well, just my 2 cents... ;-)

That's probably more than I'll tackle for this particular
shirt, but it's an idea I'll keep in mind for another
project.

The *wearer* never sees the back of his/her garment while
wearing it? ;-}

Sometimes a good wash with strong bleach is the only way to
make dingy white sheets/towels/socks really sparkle again.
