I will be teaching how to make window clings with fabric paint. This is such a simple, easy (AND FUN) way to decorate a window or mirror. We will talk about: *Coming up with a design *How to make that design with fabric paint *Plus, a tip and trick for how to get it off and to stick to a window or mirror (and what to do if you're having a hard time with it) We will NOT be 100% finishing these during class. It normally takes fabric paint 3-4 hours + to dry. You can always message me for troubleshooting (although, we will be discussing these possible situations during class). I am always happy to help! I would LOVE to see pictures of the completed projects, though, so please feel free to send me a pic (or post it in a review) when it is dry and hung in its new spot. This is going to be a casual class, where children can talk and discuss ideas about what designs they want to create. While it is fun to use a pre-made design (ie a picture printed on computer paper), it is also fun to just do this free handed.
Learning Goals
Learners will create fabric paint designs to hang on a window or mirror.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
This class has the potential to get a bit messy. Please have your child work in an easy-to-clean area (or cover your space with newspaper or a cover of your choice). Also, if your child has the tendency to get things on clothing easily (as some of my own do), I suggest a paint shirt or something old that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on.
Supply List
-Fabric Paint (places that sell it are Amazon, Target, Wal-Mart, JoAnn Fabric, Michaels... just to name a few). The brand and amount of colors is flexible. Cost can run between $6-$20, depending on how many different colors you want. Here is an example of what to look for: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Puffy-1-fl-oz-3D-Paint-Value-Pack-12-Color-Rainbow-Multi-Surface/17299895 -Wax Paper -Masking/Painter/Scotch Tape (to tape Wax Paper, so it stays in one place) -Printed designs (optional- you can find your own... try not to have TOO much detail... or I can make something for you if you message me an idea 24+ hours before class, so I can send you an attachment to print before class). Since these go UNDER the wax paper, you can use the designs over and over. -Patience (waiting for the paint to dry is the hardest part) -Damp Paper Towel/Cloth -or- Spray Bottle
