Scarves in the Making
Try this technique on canvas bags, pillow cases, aprons...there are many options! We opted for squares of fabric which can be used as scarves for the dogs or napkins for us.
Phebea and Ruby model our creations!
Supplies:
Gel glue, Glad Bags or plastic liners (glue and paint will seep through fabric, so cover your work surface), Acrylic Paints and Brushes, Fabric item to decorate,
other decorations of your choice, Creativity!

| Set up with Glad bags under the fabric, like this... |
 |
| Create designs with Gel glue. We were in flowery moods! Remember, where there is glue now, white or base fabric color will appear later. Let glue dry completely. Overnight or in the sun for a few hours is best. |
 |
| Paint!!! Tips: Save plastic lids for paint trays, cans for paint brush water cups, & have a spare chair in case yours becomes occupied!  Now for the magic...soak in warm water for 15 minutes. Rub off any remaining glue. Rinse, dry, and... 
They soften up nicely after a spin through the washing machine! Dry them either on the line or in the machine.
