so i've had this old army jacket in my closet for awhile and i've wanted to do something to make it a little special. this weekend i finally got my hands on some stencils and went to work... i love it!
i got some stencils at target, as well as two types of paint: white and glow in the dark. the paint is acrylic, mostly because i felt a bit too lazy to go to a second store to get fabric paint. however, it'll be completely fine, as acrylic paint works on canvas and i also don't plan to wash the jacket all the time.
it's really straight forward from there.... a piece of cardboard in the jacket to keep it flat and easy to paint on, taping down the stencils, and dabbing away for a couple coats! i used white and then glow in the dark for the last few layers. i let it all dry and then carefully peeled up the stencils! yippee!
let us know if you try it out and what you paint!
xxx,
jo
