DIY Easter Crafts: Our Spring DIY »Potato Print Eggs«
We show you how to use the potato stamp technique to make wonderful patterns for both your Easter decorations and for wrapping Easter gifts. Our video tutorial will help you to easily recreate the DIY.
Potato print
You can use the fabric decorated with a potato stamp as a tablecloth, for napkins or as zero-waste packaging.
Materials:
- Fabric
- Fabric paint to use for potato printing
- Potato
- Knife
- Small knife / linoleum cutter set
- sisterMAG template
Instructions:
1.) Print sisterMAG TEMPLATE and cut potato in the middle.
2.) Cut out a rectangle on the potato half.
3.) Using the linoleum cutter cut the pattern into the potato rectangle.
4.) When the pattern is finished, stamp the potato on a piece of paper so that the moisture of the potato comes out. Then do a test run with the paint colour on paper.
5.) Lay the fabric flat and start stamping! Best orientate yourself on an edge so that the pattern always stays straight.
6.) Once that is done, iron the fabric briefly with so that the paint is fixed on the fabric.
7.) You can use this fabric for towels, napkins or zerowaste packaging!
