How to make a Donut Tote with Puffy Paint
Sweeten your accessories with a cute donut tote that's easy to make and easy on the eyes! Craft Box Girls will show you how to add a delectable touch to a simple tote bag using felt, Puffy Paint and Aleene's Fabric Fusion. What You Need Puffy 3D Paint Aleene's Fabric Fusion Tote bag Felt in desired colors Scissors Letter stencils Pencil Trim in desired color Scratch paper Tape Circular items for tracing Step 1 For this easy project, you don't need to track down a special pattern — you can make a circle with a center cutout by tracing any circular items onto a piece of scratch paper and cutting it out. For the frosting, use whatever circular item you traced for the center of the donut, and just make a wavy line for the outer edges of the frosting. Step 2 Once you have your patterns created, use a pencil to trace them onto felt, then cut out. Iron your tote so it's nice and smooth before gluing the pieces in place. Step 3 Use Fabric Fusion to glue your large circle onto the center of your tote, then glue the frosting piece on top of the circle. Step 4 Next decide what you want your tote quote to say and cut out the letter stencils needed. Step 5 Arrange the letter stencils around the donut and tape down to help hold in place. Step 6 Use your pencil to lightly trace the letters onto the tote bag, using the stencils as a guide. Step 7 Remove the letter stencils and get ready to paint! Step 8 Working from the top of the tote down (so you don't run the risk of smearing paint by working in different directions), outline your lettering and donut with Puffy Paints in whatever colors you like! Step 9 Don't forget to add sprinkles to your donut! Step 10 Add a finishing touch to your tote by gluing vibrant trim across the top edge. Let the tote dry flat until the glue and paint are completely dry. Step 11 Is anyone else craving something sweet right now?
Valentine Reverse Tie-Dye Quote Art Tee
Whether you're celebrating Valentine's Day with your significant other, your gal pals, or the most fantastic person you know - YOU - this custom Valentine's Day Quote Art T-shirt is the perfect tee to wear when Cupid gets out his bow and arrow. (Whether you decide to run towards his arrow or away from it is entirely up to you. We're not judging.) Make it clear who your true love is (can we say tacos, tacos and MORE TACOS?!) with the cool effects of the Tulip® Reverse Tie-Dye Kit and clever quote art made easy with Tulip® Fabric Paint Markers. Get the tutorial from Pretty Life Girls and get ready to get your grub on in style this Valentine's Day. What you need: - Tulip Reverse Tie-Dye Kit - Tuip 1-Color Fuchsia Dye Kit - Tulip Fabric Paint Markers - Black cotton T-shirt - Bucket or sink - Letter stencils - Iron - Thin cloth - T-shirt form/cardboard To prep your shirt for adding Color Changer from the Reverse Tie-Dye Kit, first twist or fold it according to your favorite tie-dye technique. For this shirt, Pretty Life Girls used the spiral tie-dye pattern, pinching the shirt fabric in the center and twisting the entire shirt into a spiral. Bind the shirt with rubber bands (using at least three to hold in place for the spiral technique). Place the bound shirt into a bucket or sink, then prepare and apply the Color Changer to your shirt according to the kit instructions. Let the Color Changer process on the shirt until your desired look has been achieved, then cut off the rubber bands and immediately rinse/launder according to instructions. If you want to add a pop of color to your shirt, now's the time! Leave your shirt damp after rinsing/washing, then mix your fuchsia (or desired) Tulip tie-dye according to instructions. You can place your shirt crumpled up in the bucket or laying flat on a covered work surface before applying dye; there's no wrong way to tie dye! Add your dye to your liking over the shirt, then let it process for the time recommended in the instructions. After the dye has set, wash and dry your shirt and you're ready for your quote art! And maybe a snack. (Mmmmm ... tacos ....) Tulip Fabric Paint Markers work on dark fabrics too, so get out your stencils and your Paint Markers and get ready to add some quote art! (We recommend placing a shirt form or piece of cardboard in between the layers of your shirt to prevent any paint from accidentally soaking through to the back of the shirt). Place your letter stencil on your shirt and use the white Paint Marker to color in the lettering. Remove the stencil and let the paint dry. Heat your iron to the hottest setting (no steam) and place a thin cloth over the top of the lettering. Iron for 60 seconds to heat set the ink. Look who's ready for Valentine's Day! But more importantly, who's ready for tacos???
