Fabric Sheer
Posted in Arts and Crafts on 09/07/2011 03:26 am by adminFabric Sheer
Is it possible to paint on sheer fabric i.e. muslin or silk?
I want to make some custom butterfly wings to wear – however – would like to know if its possible to paint onto muslin or silk? What kind of paint would I use and would the colours run? Would it still look as good as if painted on canvas?
Thank You!
Sure. And canvas will be too heavy for the project, most likely.
