Throw Pillow Directions:
- Lay down some of the kraft paper to help protect your work, and also put some in between the pillow cover to protect the inside in case the paint bleeds through.
- • If you are trying to achieve a more whimsical or scattered look to your pillow then you will want to begin at a corner and work yourself out at an angle for each of the erasers.
- Next, pour the fabric paint into the color palette and with the foam brush apply the paint onto one side of the eraser. After the paint has been applied, the stamp onto the pillow in whatever pattern you may want. Such as crosses, stripes, lines, squares, diamonds, etc.
- After each stamp you will need to recoat the reapply the paint to the eraser. When you are finished with the patterning, let the pillow sit and the paint dry.
