How to Tape Paint Stripes with Brush-On Fabric Paint

You can hand paint your own evenly spaced and colorful stripes and designs with Tulip Soft Brush-on Paints - we'll show you just how easy it is!

Upgrade your items and give your unique touch with this easy tape paint technique.

Step 1:

First, choose your color palette - this is probably the most challenging part! We went with vibrant Tulip Soft Paint rainbow colors for this rug.

Step 2:

You really only need a few supplies that you probably already have at home, and if you don't, you can pick them up for super cheap. Tulip Soft Paints work on most fabrics.

Step 3:

Use painter's tape to mask off your design. To achieve straight lines, using a straight edge like a ruler or yardstick as a guide helps if your design is linear like ours. You could definitely create more geometric designs with your tape or skip the tape altogether and freehand paint your designs!

Step 4:

Once your design is masked off, it's time to start painting! You can pour your paints into plastic cups for easy access, or a paper plate or paint palette if you have one. Brush on as many coats (letting dry in between) until your desired opacity is achieved.

Step 5:

Once your designs have dried, remove the tape.
