Create your own trendy floral shirt and handbag!

The T-shirts and bags are stamped with fabric paint, using an empty toilet paper roll (inside) or part of an egg carton.

Make sure that when you process new textiles - such as a T-shirt - that it has been pre-washed.

Place a piece of cardboard in the shirt or under the fabric to be painted. If necessary, you can use the cardboard as a tensioning board with the help of clothespins.

Cut thin strips on one side of an empty toilet paper roll. Dose a little paint on a palette and smear it out a bit to create a larger paint spot.

Dab the cut toilet paper roll in it, make sure it is evenly distributed and press it a few times to create a nice flower.
Try this out beforehand on a sample of fabric to estimate the correct dosage.

Paint the flower heart and stems with a paintbrush.

Have fun with this easy technique with a nice summer result!

Bumblebee T-shirt with white flowers.

Lightly draw the bumblebee on the shirt or bag, or trace it with transfer paper or with the help of a light panel.

Use a Faber-Castell Textile Marker pen for the lines.

Color the bumblebee with a brush and fabric paint. Paint the wings transparent, so not opaque, with white paint.

Stamp the white flowers using a dry dish brush and paint the stems with a paintbrush.

Happy summer!
