Fabric Paints – painting on T‑shirts and textiles
Brighten up your fabrics with your own designs – fabric paints turn ideas into wearable art. Fabric paints for textile painting, i.e., paints for T‑shirts and fabrics, stand out with rich pigments, high coverage, and easy application by brush, sponge, or through a stencil. Create original prints on T‑shirts, hoodies, bags, and cushions, and enjoy quick drying, a flexible finish, and long‑lasting results – ideal for kids and adults alike.
Choose paints for light or dark fabrics, 3D fabric paints, metallic, pearlescent, and neon shades, spray paints, and liners for precise lines. Most acrylic fabric paints are water‑based and low‑odor, suitable for school projects and crafting at home. They work on cotton, linen, and blends – perfect for T‑shirts, jeans, canvas totes, or sneakers. Once dry, simply heat set by ironing (follow the manufacturer’s instructions) and your designs remain colorfast and washable up to 40–60 °C.
Tips for a simple process: pre‑wash the fabric without fabric softener and iron it, place cardboard inside the garment, apply your design with a brush, sponge, or stencil, let it dry, then iron through baking/parchment paper for 3–5 minutes. Wash inside out afterwards. Try stenciling, tie‑dyeing (fabric dyeing), stamping, or spray paints – fabric painting will be creative, fun, and yield a professional finish. Handy fabric paint sets make it easier to get started and to master advanced techniques.
