If i splash paint on these aprons before the kids wear them do u think the paint will hold onto the fabric? thnx

Initially yes but once the apron moves/ bends I would highly suspect it will flake off. Use fabric paint for a lasting design.

What a great idea- to use them on the fabric cubes.... Hmm, how about using some spray adhesive either right away, or later when they become less sticky to keep them on?

I washed them and then used fabric spray colors and fabric pens and the colors stayed fine. The problem was the fabric does not come out very nice. It came out wrinkled and had to be ironed. I had my Sunday school kids decorate them for an end of the year fun project. They were ok for that.

I've used it on vinyl and plastic with great success. I'd say that if the fabric is not prone to pilling, it should receive the paint well.

We believe so. The fabric is pretty sturdy and washable. We bought it exactly because of the kids.

I'm sorry, but I can not answer your question as I had to return them because of a quality issue. Before using them, I wash them and some of the aprons started threading and this was just the first wash. Also, one of the aprons had no pocket on it.

Hi Sara, I re-sprayed my fabric after washing it, just to be on the safe side, two out of three times...my fabric is black with white print...I didn't notice any problems/lack of protection when I neglected to spray it, but that might be due to the main color being black. If in doubt, spray it again! ;)

I thought about this a little bit, and asked myself what I would do if I painted my sneakers- and I said to myself that I'd not put sealant on it. A) The feet probably would not be able to breath as well. B) Sneakers are going to get banged up anyway. I would just leave them be, I told myself. A lot of the time some wear and tear adds to the character, and sealant is not likely to deter that anyway given your daughter's application.

I would not, they are silk screened on burlap. I would be afraid either the paint would fade, or the burlap would shrink. I would hand wash.

I ordered the beige set and I think it may be possible IF you use a method that will not soak the fabric. You can try on the fabric covered cardboard insert. Is there a sponge painting technique? Could you stipple on fabric paint? It would take experimentation.

On mine, they were stiffer than the fabric, but really not as hard as the ones that are heat sealed on (like a decal). . . When the paint is dry, after you stencil or screen the design on, you need to "heat set" the paint. Which makes it washable. . . after a couple washings, it becomes softer.

I haven't tried to, but I think it'll depend on what type of paint you put on it. I've honestly never seen "painted" holds. I've seen plastic holds that are already colored, not painted.I'd rather keep them the way they are. They look more real and fun this way.

I used fabric glue and fabric glitter. I did two coats. It turned out beautiful! DO NOT IRON these, so iron-on letters won't work.

i found the colors to be a little different when they dried. i used them mostly for mixed media painting on canvas. i DID do one t-shirt. and had to retouch it, after i washed it. after that, it was "just OK". be sure to put some cardboard protection under the layer of fabric you are painting. also, give plenty of drying time. if i had it to do over, i would make a small color sampler, by drawing a line from each color first, so that you can see what it will look like when it dries. rather than waste them, i still use them on occasion, but mostly i use another brand. and btw, i like martha stewart and regret giving such a negative answer. good luck.

sorry i didn't really try on the apron yet. i can put watercolor paper (size around A4) on the boards.

They are watercolors and therefore water soluble. But usually for an adult the colors go onto paper.and remove with a water brush scrubber adequate for repaint to a different color or leaving blank white I can't say whether or not they will stain clothing. The paints are nice and bright for the money. Good luck.

I would think so, it won't be perfect of course but it will make them not so noticeable at least. I used them for onesie decorating at a baby shower and they've been washed a lot and have not come out or bled. I would color the jeans first and then throw them in the dryer for 30 min to set the marker (that's what I did). Then you can wash and wear like normal.
