Fabric painting is a great way to create useful, unique gifts for friends and family. You can use t-shirts, blank canvas bags, and so much more! These are a couple t-shirts I did for my youngest two siblings. I'll post photos of the canvas bags later.

| First, make sure everything has been washed before you do any painting. You can use a special fabric marker that disappears in the washer to quickly sketch out a design. These sketches took about 5-10 minutes, and provided a guideline for the design so that they did not end up at a weird angle. |

| Don't be afraid to mix colors! Invest in a cheap paintbrush (like the kind that come in kids' watercolor sets) to help you brush in shades and details and aid in mixing. |

Take the time to make sure your mixes are the same shades that you want, or THIS will happen.... :
Ah well, live and learn....at least my siblings liked them haha. :)
