DIY Canada Day Shirts

CANADA DAY SHIRTS

Canada Day is coming, have you made your Canada Day Shirt yet? While I love to celebrate my home and native land by dressing my entire family in Canada themed shirts, I don’t love buying them at my local stores because they usually have the year printed on them. 

I can’t be seen dressing my entire family in 2017’s Canada Day Shirts, now can I? But I also don’t want to buy a new shirt each year that I will only wear once. So, DIY is the way to go for a timeless (literally) design.

MAKE YOUR OWN CANADA DAY SHIRTS

I may care a bit less for kids who will grow out of their sizes each year, but for me I wanted something I could wear again, year after year.  Or wear throughout the year as a regular shirt. 

While driving to Lake Louise for my nieces dance competition I was inspired by all the provincial highway signs, parks Canada signs, and other travel related Canadiana. 

I came home and made a couple Canadian themed SVG files that you can use on a cricut, silhouette, or other craft cutting machine and figured I would share them with you!

PARKS CANADA BEAVER

The beaver is Canada’s national animal and can be seen on Parks Canada signs across Canada. This shirt is a subtle Canadian shirt.

SORRY MAPLE LEAF SHIRT

Canadians are known for being so kind, they apologize for everything. So what better way to celebrate Canada than with a maple leaf saying sorry!

CANADA STRONG AND FREE

A line from Canada’s national anthem is “a true north strong and free” so this shirt has a more retro graphic style with a moose cut out with est. 1867 (the year Canada was formed). Canada – Strong and free.
