| Yuppers, that's right. I spray painted my skirt. I've wanted to try this for a long time, and finally took the plunge. I figured I hadn't worn this plain black skirt in probably five years anyway, so if it didn't turn out then I really wasn't out much. |
 |
| Using painter's tape for the stripes, I pressed it down tightly then took some silver rustoleum spray paint and covered the entire front of the skirt. Then I let it dry..... and wore it to church! :) I don't know how it will hold up to washing.... I think I'll play it safe and hand wash it inside-out! |

I think I'll try a different design next.... spray painting clothes just might be the next big thing. Haha! |
Hmmm, this comes at an interesting time :) A couple of days ago, I was thinking...I wonder if I could paint a couch? Would it need heat set? Would it bleed into our clothes is we sat on it with anything damp? Would I use fabric paint? Spray paint, Brush?...
ReplyDeleteI will be interested in how your skirt takes it over time. I would have to try it on something that's ready for the trash first. But then your skirt is material...and so is a couch...
Looks great! Would love to know how it holds up after a wash.
ReplyDeleteThis blog offered a tutorial on how to paint furniture. I believe that she used fabric paint.

ReplyDeleteVery cool! I have a couple of skirts I got from Goodwill that I could change up like that. Thanks for the idea!
ReplyDeleteDoes it feel stiff? It looks great.
ReplyDeleteWow, who would have thought. It looks great, might have to try this on something.
ReplyDeleteSo let's see here. No, it actually doesn't really feel stiff! Aubrey, thanks for the link - hope you check it out, Linda!! :) If you try it (your couch), you HAVE to let me know how it turns out!!
