Hello! Giovanna here with my first post as a Gelli Arts� artist. Did you know that Gelli Arts� can help you be fashionable? Do you want to protect your clothes while creating, at home or during a workshop, in style?
This is a super easy project to make -- and the result is stunning!
There is a huge surprise for you at the end of this post!
Put some drops of acrylic paint on the Gelli Arts� 4�� Round plate and spread the paint evenly with a brayer.
Lay your favorite stencil over the plate, cover it with the cotton fabric and press lightly on the fabric with your hands.
Repeat until the fabric is filled up with colors and patterns and you are happy with the result.
Take an elastic band slightly larger than your wrist and put a safety pin on one edge.
Sew the painted fabric along the short side leaving an opening large enough for the elastic band to go through.
Slip the elastic cord inside the opening. Make sure to hold onto the elastic at both ends and sew along the longest side. And�. doneeee!!
So fun and easy to do!
To decorate the apron use some scraps of white fabric: create some circles and ovals using the mini oval Gelli Arts� plate with the same technique explained for the protector sleeves. This time cut out the circles and ovals, and cut them in half.
Pin them to the apron and sew them using a decorative stitch like a zig zag.
Tip: If you�d like to wash the protector sleeves and/or the apron add some fabric medium to the acrylic paints, and iron the painted fabric.
