What you need

  • Talens Art Creation Textile decoration set
  • Fabric table cloth, napkins or other table textiles

Tip

For the best results, pre-wash the fabric item without fabric softener and let it dry completely before painting it.

Step 1

Shake the paint before use. Take the snowflake stencil that is included in the set and the colour of the textile paint you want to use. Lay the stencil on top of the fabric, add paint to one of the sponge sticks also included in the set and stamp away! Try out different colours and patterns to create a dynamic effect. Let the paint dry for 30 minutes.

Step 2

Once the paint has dried, fix the paint using an iron (on cotton setting) with protective paper (such as parchment paper) between the fabric and the iron.

After heat setting, the item will be washable up to 104 °F/40 °C and suitable for the dryer.

Step 3

Now you can add little 3D details to your design using the Effect Liner. Let the effect liner dry completely. You don’t have to fixate the effect liner.
