Instructions
I placed my stencil onto the fabric bag and used stencil tape to hold the stencil in place.
Place something like wax paper or cardboard underneath the fabric under the stencil. This will stop the paint from bleeding through onto the backside of my bag. This is important for fabric projects.
I loaded my stencil brush with paint. Loading means to get paint on your brush.
Next I tapped the brush onto a paper plate to “off load” the brush.
I tapped the stencil brush up and down over the stencil and onto the fabric.
Once I finished covering the stencil with paint, I immediately carefully peeled the stencil off the bag.
Let the fabric dry completely, then remove the wax paper or divider from the center.
