Fabric Paint with Stencils

Rather than making a graphic t-shirt with a bleach pen, you can use fabric paint. Fabric paint comes in so many different packages and a safe way to paint on fabric is to go slow and use a foam brush. Again this is very kid friendly as long as you monitor how much fabric paint is used (you don't want to slather too much on).

By the way, all paint and bleach will bleed to the other side of the t-shirt unless you place cardboard or another thick object between layers of fabric.

Next time we will talk about another type of fabric paint. Fabric Spray Paint!!

Make your own custom stencil here!
*Note: When ordering, it does not matter which color vinyl you use, so might as well choose a color that is discounted like red, yellow, or green.
