DIY hand painted napkins tutorial!

By Debbiedoo's Team Published: Jul 31, 2011 · Modified: Dec 21, 2019

 

Happy Sunday Morning to you! A lot of you gals are anxious to see how I did these pretty hand painted napkins! I have said it before, I am NO PICASSO!

Stencils are so easy to work with and come in such great patterns anyone can achieve a hand painted custom look when using them.
I will show you the step by step.   Pardon some of the pics, blurry, as I did this early this morning.
 
 
 These dishes were my inspiration.
 I just happened to have the same stencil pattern on hand that I picked up at hobby lobby.
 
 Just a close up.
One nice thing I have found that stenciling on fabric is so simple and there are
No RUNS.

Start with a plain white napkin, and fold it over on each side length wise.

I did actually press the ones I did already, but this is just a quickie to show you.

Take your stencil and place it over the napkin.  Don’t worry if it does not cover the entire napkin.

I then taped it down on each side.

As I started the stenciling process I did hold the stencil down lightly in place, as you can see there are some gaps here.  However, once you start rolling, it does not matter….

I love my little stencil roller..I also picked one up from Hobby lobby.
I use it all the time.

Start rolling away….

For the little blue flowers…

 
 
 
 
 
 
The after….
 

And that is that.  I did add a personalized letter Monogram on mine.  Can’t wait to share with you my table setting soon.
