DIY Mother’s Day Gift :: A Sharpie Art Apron
DIY Sharpie Art Apron
Looking for the perfect handmade gift for Mother’s Day? Look no further! Make something useful that Mom will love.
You will need:
- Apron (I bought mine on Amazon here)
- Sharpies, fine and ultra fine point
- Rubbing Alcohol
- Paint Brush
- Paper Towel
- Bird Template
Print out the bird to size you like. I like to cut out the bird, play around to see where you want it and then trace around it. If you have transfer paper that will work perfectly.
Start coloring with Sharpies. I placed a paper towel underneath to catch some of the alcohol. The alcohol dries really quickly. Some fabric will bleed while you are coloring.
Use the ultra fine sharpie to outline roughly the bird.
When you are done, dip your brush into the rubbing alcohol and let drop fall on the sharpie. If you go close to the edge, the sharpie will bleed into the rest of your apron.
The alcohol dries really quickly.
I added the word MOM and made some patterns. If you want to add an image on the pocket. It is best to place a paper towel between the two layers. I added a heart.
