I've used fabric paint before, usually for helping to adhere fabric appliques or for accenting an ornament.
ReplyDeleteI've used fabric paint to work with iron-ons that my daughter and I have created.
ReplyDeleteI haven't worked with fabric paint, yet, but I'm dying to!
ReplyDeleteI have altered baby snapsits before, with iron-ons!
:)
I LOVE fabric paint! I've done lots of t-shirts and even added small amounts of fabric paint to formalwear in place of beadwork or to help glue on beadwork. I love it for costuming too!
ReplyDeletemanderley@meettheswains.org
wooo hooo , am I the first??? (= I did alter a few for the twins, but did the iron-on thing... would have loved the creativity of paints.. hehe this is an awesome giveaway..
ReplyDeleteI have never altered a baby suit, but I have used fabric paint!
ReplyDeleteI not only have altered a baby suit but I just fabric painted my white keds to look more like "me"
ReplyDeleteBecause of your post last week, it got me thinking about all the Plaid fabric paint I have in my art studio (originally for One Stroke painting)
ReplyDeleteSo, this weekend I went out & picked up some baby one suits, so I could paint on them.
I'm super excited, I'm going to be an Aunt for the first time in June, so I've got to get busy with all these plain, white, baby one suits!
I can't wait for your book to come out - I need more ideas!
I've used fabric paint before for some project that I gave away as gifts. This prize set looks like it could be a lot of fun and possiblites. :)

I have actually gone the other way (just like me to do it backward) I have taken the super cute embroidery from a snappy and recycled it by sewing it onto a pillow using it as a patch!

I haven't tried using paint for any onsie's yet, but I have used the fabric paint markers. I have used the spray paint type fabric paints with stencils to leave a messy look around the edges, but I need to play with it a little more until I really like it.
ReplyDeleteCassie.whitmire@gmail.com
Hi, I have never done any baby suits, but I have used fabric paint. My daughter and son n law are going to try to get pregnant this year, so I will definatly be using baby suits when they give me a grandbaby.

i've used fabric paint for my kids halloween bags it was fun and the kids love to help .... thanks for the giveaway.....
ReplyDeleteI have never altered a baby snap suit, but I have used fabric paint. I have made halloween shirts with eyeballs all over them using reverse applique. I also love the freezer paper stencil method and have used that a handful of times to make plain shirts more interesting.

All the babies are just so darn cute!
ReplyDeleteI have used fabric paint once to paint on trick-or-treat bags.
I have never altered a baby bodysuit, or baby anything or have I ever used fabric paint. I would love to do it though, I've seen so many cute printed onesies that could easily be created.
ReplyDeleteI've never altered a snapsuit. I have used fabric paint. I remember using fabric crayons at my birthday sleepover. We decorated pillowcases.
ReplyDeleteI want to start doing some fabric crafts with my son. We've got some Monster Trucks that would make great wheel patterns! I also have two new babies in the family. Something original would be cute.
I have used fabric paint and I have altered baby snap suits...put together a little kit for the family years ago and we made a new 'wardrobe' for my niece. Really fun! Thanks for the opportunity!
ReplyDeleteLOVe fabric paint! But altering a snapsuit? Not YET! Can't wait to read the book!!
ReplyDeleteI have never used fabric paint or altered a snapsuit but I would love to try!!!

I alter onesies and plain bibs with paint and iron ons.
ReplyDeleterychlik.family@gmail.com
I have done both. I have put iron on transfers of original artwork on a few snap suits. I've also drawn on them with fabric markers. I like to use fabric paint on my home made birthday goody bags and felt board stories.
ReplyDeleteI love refashioning snap suits for my little girl and for gifts for friends. It is so fun to try out different techniques to alter them! thanks for the awesome giveaway!
ReplyDeleteprttyriss@yahoo.com
I have made iron ons of my own design on some snap suits and made little skirts to match with ruffles on the sleeves. A themed outfit.

I went on a snap suit altering spree right before my son was born. All I did was print up some cute images onto iron on sheet and iron them onto the suits. They didn't hold up too well though since baby clothes get washed way more often than regular clothes do.
ReplyDeletewhat a great giveaway! i've done tons of iron-ons, but never used fabric paint. sounds fun!
ReplyDeleteangie.rich@yahoo.com
I've never fabric painted before but I'm willing to give it a shot! You have the cutest ideas!!

Cathie, I have never done painting on a baby onesies but have painted with acrylic paint on baby shirts for friends. Usually this is done to cover up stains and make the shirts last. I used to paint shirts and give them away to friends as gifts, also paint shirts for my daughters when they were younger and again I used acrylic paints and brushes. I love to create shirts, right now I am in the process of painting bibs for a friend who is expecting within the next two months. Alas no grandchildren for me yet just granddogs! I haven't painted anything for them to wear yet, but I might have to soon! Love the idea of having a book to get ideas from!

I have with iron-ons - what cute ideas you've shared, thank you!
ReplyDeleteHi Cathie!
ReplyDeleteI love Folk Art Fabric paint! I have painted on lots of shirts... but never a snapsuit... would love the inspiration to do so!
Thanks!!
Carrie
I did some fabric painting on a Halloween costume when I was little with my sisters... we were "punk rockers" and it mainly involved dribbling paint everywhere, but it was a lot of fun!
ReplyDeleteI alter snap suits as baby gifts all the time by sewing on fabric swatches. Fabric paint is fun but I also like to add fabric medium to acrylic to get more colors.
ReplyDeleteI have used the iron-ons to alter snap suits then had to use fabric paint to fix some faulty iron ons. After fixing a couple I decided to just use the fabric paint and get creative! :)
ReplyDeletei haven't altered any snapsuits but i have painted on a few t-shirts. i am also getting supplies ready to do some painting on canvas fabric. i have seen some wonderful accessories and embellishments painted on canvas and wnat to give it a try. your blog candy is fantastic. hillikayathotmaildotcom
ReplyDeleteI have altered a snapsuit by tie-dying it magenta and pulling up little twists all over that turned out to look like little flowers on it when it was finished... quite cute! This giveaway set will be great to make a ton of cute snapsuits! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI've altered a snapsuit by appliqueing to the front. I tried some paint for Valentine's shirts...they were terrible. It was spray fabric paint, and I think I would have been successful with the regular bottle and brush style. Maybe I could win a fabulous prize and try it out!
ReplyDeleteI've used - and still use fabric paint. It was my mom who taught me how when I was a kid. Today, I still customize plain t-shirts or even plushies with fabric paint for that personal touch. Thank for such a wonderful giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI haven't worked with fabric paint before but love the idea. I just made a ruffle-bum onesie for a friend having a girl. I have a 4mo oldboy and would love to create something fun for him
ReplyDeleteI've used fabric paint, but can't get the stigma of late 80's puff paint out of my head. would love to try some of the newer products
ReplyDeleteFUN! Yes, I have altered a onsie before, using fabric paint and rubber stamps, we made them at my baby shower. I love the ones you make and would love to try it out, before my baby gets too big!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great giveaway! My very first craft sale was a onesie that I had crossed stitched a cute little strawberry on. Adorable. Would love to try your techniques, even though my babies are teenagers now!
ReplyDeleteI have used puff paints to decorate canvas bags for my nana thats in an assisted living home.

omg super amazing prize pack alert!!! i really hope i win, i love painting on pretty much anything i can get my hands on!
ReplyDeleteI've never worked with a baby snapsuit before but it looks like so much fun! I'm a long time lover/user of fabric paint -- the love affair started in 4th grade when we designed t-shirts for Earth Day and I never stopped :) My favorite thing to do these days is mix iron-on graphics with fabric paint and glitter...or sometimes spraypaint over textured/patterned stencils! I'm currently in college and hoping to turn my love of design into a career. Wish me luck!
ReplyDeleteI've done/used both. One time I went to a baby shower where we decorated the little baby outfits with fabric paints. It was a lot of fun for us and for the mom since she had so many unique shirts for her little one.
ReplyDeleteI have done several different variations of baby outfits. I like using freezer paper to use as a stencil. Fabric paint is great. We did a onesie party for my friends baby shower using all this fun stuff. She enjoyed it and we enjoyed making them.
ReplyDeleteI've used fabric paint but never Plaid brand. I'm always looking for a brand that stays soft yet has good coverage.

When my duaghter was a baby, I used to decorate those little onesies all the time! I wish mine had been as cute as the ones you have done. Isn't fabric paint the best ever?
ReplyDeleteI have never done either one but since I found out I'm going to be an aunt again . . . I think I have the excuse to try this out!
ReplyDeleteI love to make fun clothing for all the little ones in my family and friends kids! I have run out of paint and supplies so I am crossing my fingers!
ReplyDeleteLovin the LOVE onesie! Yes, I have altered one at a Baby shower!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the opportunity!
Artful Blessings,

We used fabric paint to make a onesie match my husbands shirt for my son when he came home from the hospital. It was a lot of fun to make, but didn't turn out so well.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the release of your new book. I could learn so much from it!
I am a first timer with painting on fabric. This is such an neat giveaway. : )
ReplyDeletetishaserrano@gmail.com
I have used paint when doing quick and easy stuff for my kids sports teams- now that I have a toddler and a baby on the way - they can all wear school colors. The mascot is a horse which is an easy enough stamp! Yeah! Thanks Kathy for the great ideas.

I have never painted on a onesie or a snapsuit but I have just recently used fabric paints for snow painting and lace dyeing. I would love to have this collection of goodies so I can try other fabric painting techniques.
ReplyDeleteThought I had better leave my email addy: ladyjspice@aol.com. Usually it comes up in my post but it didn't tonight. You can tell I would really like to have those fabric paints, etc. LOL!
ReplyDeleteI've altered baby onsies by ironing on appliques. I've never used fabric paint with them before but thats a good idea and I'd love to try it!

I love tie dying baby onesies! I make a set of 5 for all the newborns in my family. I have used fabric paint in the past on sports related apparel, but think I will be implementing into my tie dyes for some extra graphics (love the LOVE tie dye onesie shown above).

I like to use fabric paint, as well as general acrylic and textile medium. Fabric paint is as good a canvas as any and much easier to wear than a piece of paper.

I have used fabric paint - designing t-shirts for a day care I used to own - so that when we took the kids on an outing they all had the same kind of t-shirt - love it~!~
