DIY: Paisley stenciled tights for winter!

Posted on May 24, 2012 by Clouds of Colour

Hey guys! Today Im teaming with diary of a mad crafter blog. Awhile ago she had done a DIY on fabric painting, I loved it and decided I wanted to test her method on a pair of tights! I LOOOVE paisley patterns and happened to find the perfect wood stencil at a trade aid store. So today we have both tested this method again, such fun huh?!

Supplies needed: Fabric paint (I used silver as I wanted it to stand out on black), wooden stencil, chosen fabric to print on!

I actually started by cutting a long piece of cardboard so that the paint wouldn’t seep through to the other side. On a piece of paper or ice-cream container lid smooth your paint out so its reasonably even. Dab stencil on and press down firmly onto fabric. Repeat… and leave to dry over night. Remember to read any instructions you get on the fabric paint bottle. You may need to iron or wash before using.
Sweeeet winter accessory! xo Bec
