Don't these Christmassy cushion covers look beautiful? In our handicraft instructions we show you how to make them with a little Fabric paint,a Stencil and some tools you can design pillowcases yourself, which will conjure up a Christmassy and cosy atmosphere in your own four walls in no time at all.
Freshly bought cotton cushions are often provided with a finish. Before you start colouring the cushion cover, it should be thoroughly rinsed with cold water. This will ensure that the Fabric paint will adhere particularly well to the pillow cases later on
Now place the Stencil onto the white cushion cover and apply a thick layer of from colour blocker"Block it" using a spatula. The colour blocker is applied wherever the fabric is not to be coloured. Now the Fabric paint applied over a large area with a paint roller or sponge. Tip: Before the cushion cover is painted, you should place a thick cardboard inside the cover. This will prevent the paint from seeping through the back of the cushion cover.
Allow the paint to dry thoroughly. Place Stencil on the cover again and, using a small sponge and the Inca Gold paint for textiles, dab on the lettering "Christmas Time". After the paint has dried, simply scratch off the colour blocker with a Spatula .

To fix the colour on the fabric, simply iron the pillowcase from the left for about 5 minutes. Afterwards the cushion cover is washable at 40°C.
