Stencil stamping on a tote bag
Add a personal touch to your tote bag with textile paint! In this video, we show you how you can use textile paint with stencil and a sponge applicator. The stencil creates a nice, polished look, but you can of course also use the textile paint with fun shaped stamps or freehand your design with a brush. We achieved this lovely spring look with the Talens Art Creation Textile Paint set in Pastel, which features light green, pink, orange and blue colours.
We would love to see your design! Let us know if you try it out by sharing it with #RoyalTalens!

About Talens Art Creation Textile
Talens Art Creation Textile is an extensive range of textile paints for light-coloured fabrics (at least 50 % cotton), available in a range of 40 colours. These colours include pearlescent colours and Reflex, a reflecting textile paint (also for dark-coloured textile) and Nightlight for a glow-in-the-dark effect. Before use, wash the textile without fabric softener. Decorate the textile with a sponge or soft brush and after drying for 30 minutes fix by ironing (on cotton setting) with a sheet of grease-proof paper between your work and ironing board.
Textile paint is great for interior decorations on cushions, furniture and curtains as well as for personalising clothes or other fashion items.
