Fabric Paint on a Tote Bag!


It has been a while since I posted an art activity. I have been thinking in the back of my mind that I need to do it. This activity is something that is a lot of fun for all ages. You can do a lot with it and really on anything (of course you need to use some judgement on what). All you need is fabric paint and a tote page/felt pennant, anything that you would like to paint. Be sure to put a covering on your table, just to be on the safe side that nothing stains. What we have used is the Tulip brand fabric paint that is in a squeeze bottle. It is easy to manage in their hands and they have the best time creating with their minds onto the fabric. As you can see from one of the girls, she liked to spread the paint around, I would recommend breaking out the paintbrushes, otherwise it could get messy using the tip of the fabric paint. The fabric paint comes out of the paintbrushes really easy with water.
