Brighten Up Fabric With Paint!
03/31/2016
It’s time to brighten up your indoor spaces with a quick fix! With the days getting longer and warmer we’re starting to look for little pops of colour that we can add to our living areas. Using a little paint and a paintbrush you can turn your room from drab to dreamy!
What you need:
- Paint brush, a couple sizes depending on what you are painting
- Paint, we love Annie Sloan’s Chalk Paint
Instructions:
- Start by selecting fabric pieces that you would like to paint. We took an old pillow, and rug that needed some vamping up. You can use just about anything really!
- Once you have selected the piece you plan to paint start thinking about what sort of design you would like. You can always find inspiration on pinterest. We love simple phrases like “Be Happy”, or “enjoy the little things”
- Start Painting! If painting on pillow with thin material, place a piece of cardboard inside so the two sides don’t stick.
- Let it dry, and if you want to make last a little longer add a little wax to the paint.
We’d love to see what DIY projects you have done with paint on fabric! Share with us on Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook!
