Simple painted print

I love this idea from the talented Jessica Jones of How About Orange. Create great painted fabric by simply using painter's tape to block off a pattern, apply your chosen paint color, and voila! Custom, hand painted fabric! I think I could be in need of new pillows, and I'm pretty sure I have some fabric paint... Project!



I also loved this tutorial for making a pretty envelope bag decorated with patterned tape, which is all the rage right now. I just happened to find some on sale at Michael's the other day, and had to have it! Here's my bag! (I think a thinner envelope would make the folds look prettier, and please pardon the image quality - shot on my iphone :)
