Statement fabric bag with Marabu Textil Painter
The self-designed fabric bag is the perfect companion for the day.
Whether as a stylish accessory or as a practical companion in everyday life: the self-designed fabric bag is the perfect companion for the day. Inscribed with funny sayings, it is the absolute eye-catcher and leaves other fabric bags in the shade.
How it is done:
1 Wash the bag without fabric softener before painting to remove any finishes. Allow to dry.
2 Print out the template in A4 size. Prepare the workspace and put the materials ready.
3 Then slide the template into the bag and trace and color the translucent letters with the Textil Painter pens.
4 In addition, the lettering can be embellished freehand with other organic shapes as desired. To do this, be sure to push some paper into the jute bag at the appropriate places so that the paint does not push through.
5 When the paint has dried (about 30 minutes), the bag is ironed last to fix the color. 3 minutes (30 x 30 cm each) from the front through a thin cotton cloth at cotton temperature without steam. Fixing is also possible in the oven at 150°C: duration approx. 8 minutes (except for synthetics and mixed fabrics). After that, the bag is washable at up to 60 ° C.
