Party Animal DIY Bandanas

Supplies:

· Mesh Stencil – Party Animal

· Gel Art Ink – Hush Your Mouth

· Gel Art Ink – Hey Y’all

· Gel Art Ink – Well I Declare

· Gel Art Ink – Metallic Copper

· Multisided Squeegee

· ChalkArt Spreader

Additional Supplies Needed:

· Bandanas or Scrap Fabric (Hobby Lobby)

· Ribbons (Hobby Lobby)

· Hot Glue Gun or Fabric Glue

Instructions:

1. Begin by folding the corner of the bandanna into the center to mark and then cut out a triangle. The cut doesn’t need to be perfect since the ribbon will be glued along the edge.

2. Next, place the stencil centered on the bandanna. Then use the ChalkArt Spreader and Squeegee to mix together the Well I Declare Gel Art Ink with a dab of Metallic Copper Gel Art Ink.

3. Then apply the mixture using the Squeegee to the top of the hat, bottom half of “Birthday,” and then the rest of the words excluding the word “Bark.”

4. Then add Hey Y’all to the rest of the stencil using the Squeegee. Once done, carefully remove the stencil and then wash it in lukewarm water.

5. While the bandanna dries, use the bone patterned stencil and Hush Your Mouth Gel Art Ink to decorate the ribbon.

6. Once everything has dried for a least a few hours, use a hot iron (no steam) to set the ink. Then use a hot glue gun or fabric glue to attach the ribbon along the top edge of the bandanna
