Hallo There!

Saw some canvas bags on the

website and thinking about the

projects that were created with

bags during the last year I just

had to buy a couple.

So glad I did.  I couldn't believe

it when I came across a lovely

idea by Angela Radford and here

 she is to show us what to do:

"Hi all, here today to show you what

 fun I've had with Starlight Textiles Paints.

 Start by masking off the areas where

 you don't want the design and attach

 the stencil to stop it moving.

 Place a piece of card or craft mat inside 

the bag to prevent the colour going through

 to the back.

 I sponged the colour on as I find

 that works better than a brush.

When all the stencilling is complete allow it 

to dry over night and then iron to fix

 the colour. 

You could leave it like this but.....

 I couldn't help it had to do some stitching

 to complete the design and added ribbon

 and little bells. 

Hope you like my sweet little bag.

 Happy crafting, Angela xXx"

Thank you Angela, I for one am

smitten with your sweet little bag!

Now folks, if like me, you don't

have any Textile paints, then you

can use any acrylic paint with 

the addition of a Fabric Painting Medium

I'll let you know how I get on......!

Otherwise you know that Starlight Textile

Paints are available from the Craft Barn

'Till tomorrow
