DIY »Checkerboard Tablecloth«
Material:
- tablecloth (preferably made of cotton or linen, old fabrics are also suitbale here)
- angular sponge
- cutter
- ruler
- pencil
- fabric paint in black & white
- paint brush
- flat iron
- protective sheet
Instructions:
- Measure the sponge and mark checkerboard lines.
- Carefully cut the sponge with the cutter to create a checkerboard pattern.
- Lay the cloth out flat with a protective sheet underneath.
- Mix your desired colour and use the sponge as a stamp. If necessary mix the paint with a little water so that it becomes more liquid. The sponge absorbs a lot of liquid.
- Carefully stamp the cloth, gently press the sponge onto the fabrc.
- Allow to dry and iron for 2-3 minutes so that the fabric paint holds well.
