Harajuku Girl!

Cartoon Denim

1. Sketch your design on paper before copying it onto the denim using a pencil.

2. Use acrylic paint and a fine brush to paint the outlines, then fill them in.

3. To avoid smudging, set aside to dry between colors.

Sporty Spice!

Football Jersey T-shirt

1. Print out your jersey number on two pieces of cardboard paper, then cut out the numbers using a crafting blade. The two cardboard pieces with holed-out digits will serve as your stencils.

2. Place the stencils on the T-shirt, then temporarily secure them with tape to not move during painting. Tip: Pad the inside of the T-shirt with newspaper to prevent paint from staining the back of the shirt.

Byzantine Babe!

Jeweled Neckline

1. Layout rhinestones on the neckline and adjust the spacing as needed.

2. When the positions are final, stick onto the garment using fabric glue. Tip: Opt to stitch the rhinestones to prevent them from falling off during washing.

In Full Bloom!

Stitch-On Rosettes

1. Cut a 1.5 x 6-inch strip of soft cloth fabric like chiffon or organza. Fold lengthwise and do a running stitch on the open edge.

2. Pull the thread like you would close a drawstring bag, then knot.

3. Stitch onto any garment like a dress, T-shirt, or knit pullover.
