How to Design a DIY Dress with Fabric Marker Doodles
This tutorial from BrightDayDesign will show you how to create a DIY dress with unique drawings and doodles using Tulip Graffiti Bullet Tip Fabric Markers! Step 1 Gather the supplies for your DIY dress. We recommend using the Tulip Graffiti Fabric Markers so that you have tons of colors to doodle and draw with! Prewash and dry the dress and lay flat, smoothing out any wrinkles. Place a piece of cardboard between layers of fabric to prevent color from seeping through. Step 2 Doodle on your DIY dress however you’d like! For this project, BrightDayDesign opted for a beautiful rainbow of floral drawings. Start with pink and red flowers on one side of the dress and doodle your way through the rainbow. Step 3 Continue drawing flowers with every color of the rainbow! Get creative with the doodle details to really personalize your DIY dress! Step 4 Once you’re happy with your drawn-on designs, your DIY doodle dress is ready to wear! Machine wash on gentle cycle after 24 hours. Tumble dry low.
Marker Tips: Find the Right One for Your Next Project
If you’ve ever found yourself wondering what kind of Tulip Fabric Marker to choose for your next project, this post will help! Not all marker tips are meant for the same thing; some are better for coloring versus drawing, or making bold lines versus fine details. Learn about the different types of Tulip Fabric Markers and what marker tip is best for your next project in this quick-reference post. You’re about to become a marker-tip expert! BULLET-TIP FABRIC MARKERS: Bullet-tip markers are probably the most commonly used for a variety of projects. Rounded with a firm, defined nib (as the marker tip is officially called), bullet tips are ideal for drawing, outlining designs and writing on fabric. Creating thicker, yet precise lines is much easier with a bullet-tip marker due to the nib’s inflexible and pointed tip. BRUSH-TIP FABRIC MARKERS: Brush-tip markers feature an elongated, flexible nib that’s meant to be used by holding the marker more horizontal to your project that straight up and down, like you would for writing and drawing with a bullet-tip marker. Because of the long, flexible nib of a brush tip, you’ll want to use brush-tip markers for creating broad strokes of color. They’re ideal for larger projects requiring broader color coverage, coloring in designs and when working with stencils. DUAL-TIP FABRIC MARKERS: If your project has different color needs, a dual-tip marker might be ideal for you! Featuring a brush tip on one end and an extra-fine tip on the other end, this is the ultimate multitasking Fabric Marker! As mentioned previously, brush tips are great for creating bold strokes of color and coloring in designs; the extra-fine tip on the other end of this marker is perfect for creating extremely detailed designs and fine accents. FINE-TIP FABRIC MARKERS: Like bullet-tip markers, fine-tip markers are another commonly used type of marker for a variety of projects. The firm, rounded nib is similar to a bullet tip but smaller, making fine-tip fabric markers ideal for writing, doodling and creating detailed designs. (But remember, if you’re looking to create super-fine details, make sure to grab one of our Dual-Tip Fabric Markers with an extra-fine tip on one end!) MIXED TIPS: “Okay Tulip,” you might be thinking, “but I need a set of Fabric Markers with a variety of tips for my project.” Don’t worry, we have those too! Our Variety Pack of black Fabric Markers features 5 different kinds of tips: brush tip, jumbo chisel tip, fine tip, extra-fine tip, and chisel tip. We’ve already covered some of the tips above, so here we’ll focus on chisel-tip markers. Chisel-tip markers in general are ideal for calligraphy style writing, making bold strokes of color and color saturation. The jumbo chisel tip is – you guessed it – great for very large designs like poster signs or coloring in large areas with big, bold strokes. The regular sized chisel-tip marker does the same thing, just on a smaller scale!

Rainbow Baby Shower Station With Tulip Fabric Markers
The arrival of a new baby always feels like sunshine and rainbows to us, no matter what season it is! That's why we love this rainbow-themed baby shower idea from Kara Woolery of Lillian Hope Designs. With the rainbow of colors from Tulip Fabric Markers, you can throw a baby shower full of fun DIYs guests will love creating, and new baby will love wearing. Get inspired to sprinkle some rainbow-colored creativity into your next baby shower, whether it's your own or for someone special, with a little help from Tulip! What you need: - Tulip Fabric Markers - desired packs - Light-colored clothing and/or shoes for baby - Rainbow-colored decor like streamers, pompoms and party servingware - Stencils or printed designs for tracing Every baby shower needs a station for gifts, food, and cake, but this one is even better because it includes spaces for creative DIYs too! Unless you are planning on a separate DIY station, make sure you have a table long enough to set up a coloring space or two for guests to drop by and decorate baby clothing. To display the Fabric Markers and give guests easy access to their chosen colors, place them in clear mason jars and place the jars at each creative station. You can print out cute rainbow-themed cards to label each station, or even hand write/decorate them using your Tulip Fabric Markers! Place the baby clothes and stencils or design prints near each DIY station for easy access, and don't forget to add some extra rainbow decor like mini pompoms to your setup! Can you even have a baby shower without a diaper cake these days? New parents-to-be always need more diapers on hand, so try making a diaper cake wrapped in rainbow streamers for a way to make diapers a little more fun and a lot more colorful! If you don't have stencils, don't worry. You can easily print out design templates for guests to use when decorating the baby clothing! If the parents-to-be have a special theme, you can include designs to fit it, or choose a variety of designs guests will enjoy using. Before the baby shower, wash and dry the baby clothes without fabric softener to remove sizing from the fabric, which can prevent the markers from completely bonding with the fabric fibers. Iron smooth for easy decorating when working with the Tulip Fabric Markers. Make sure to give guests enough room on their workspace to really get creative! You can even decorate the space with ribbon for an easy way to add a little extra color. It helps to outline steps for guests to follow when decorating the baby clothes, especially if guests have never worked with Fabric Markers to DIY their own designs on fabric. We promise the decorating activity is fun AND super easy! When guests are ready, they'll first need to select a design printout. Then slide the design in between the clothing layers and center it, or place where desired. Smooth the fabric as much as possible. Next choose desired colors of Fabric Markers for decorating. Tip: Fine-tip markers are better for drawing, outlining and decorating, and the brush-tip markers are better for coloring in designs! Now it's time to get creative! Trace over the designs and color in. Once guests are happy with their designs, they can remove the template and set aside for the marker inks to dry. A cute way to let the clothing dry AND display everyone's colorful creativity is to hang a line of twine or ribbon and clip the clothing onto it. We hope you're feeling inspired to throw a rainbow baby shower to remember with Tulip Fabric Markers! Don't forget to tag us on social @tulipcolorcrafts and share your creativity with us.
