    I’ve used fabric paint to work with iron-ons that my daughter and I have created.

  4. manderley@meettheswains.org says

    I LOVE fabric paint! I’ve done lots of t-shirts and even added small amounts of fabric paint to formalwear in place of beadwork or to help glue on beadwork. I love it for costuming too!

    wooo hooo , am I the first??? (= I did alter a few for the twins, but did the iron-on thing… would have loved the creativity of paints.. hehe this is an awesome giveaway..

  8. Alison says

    Because of your post last week, it got me thinking about all the Plaid fabric paint I have in my art studio (originally for One Stroke painting)

    So, this weekend I went out & picked up some baby one suits, so I could paint on them.

    I’m super excited, I’m going to be an Aunt for the first time in June, so I’ve got to get busy with all these plain, white, baby one suits!

    I can’t wait for your book to come out – I need more ideas!

    WOW, I am a new Grandma, and all my past dabbling in way too many different crafts, have all turned around, and have new meaning, I have a little Grandaughter to make things for. Thank you so much for this wonderful giveaway!!!

    I haven’t tried using paint for any onsie’s yet, but I have used the fabric paint markers. I have used the spray paint type fabric paints with stencils to leave a messy look around the edges, but I need to play with it a little more until I really like it.

    Hi, I have never done any baby suits, but I have used fabric paint. My daughter and son n law are going to try to get pregnant this year, so I will definatly be using baby suits when they give me a grandbaby.
    Thank, Beth

    I have never altered a baby snap suit, but I have used fabric paint. I have made halloween shirts with eyeballs all over them using reverse applique. I also love the freezer paper stencil method and have used that a handful of times to make plain shirts more interesting.

  18. BudgetPretty says

    I have never altered a baby bodysuit, or baby anything or have I ever used fabric paint. I would love to do it though, I’ve seen so many cute printed onesies that could easily be created.

  19. ThatBrunette says

    I’ve never altered a snapsuit. I have used fabric paint. I remember using fabric crayons at my birthday sleepover. We decorated pillowcases.

    I want to start doing some fabric crafts with my son. We’ve got some Monster Trucks that would make great wheel patterns! I also have two new babies in the family. Something original would be cute.

  20. lisaski says

    I have used fabric paint and I have altered baby snap suits…put together a little kit for the family years ago and we made a new ‘wardrobe’ for my niece. Really fun! Thanks for the opportunity!

  24. Kristy says

    I have done both. I have put iron on transfers of original artwork on a few snap suits. I’ve also drawn on them with fabric markers. I like to use fabric paint on my home made birthday goody bags and felt board stories.

  27. frankensteinsbride1313 says

    I went on a snap suit altering spree right before my son was born. All I did was print up some cute images onto iron on sheet and iron them onto the suits. They didn’t hold up too well though since baby clothes get washed way more often than regular clothes do.

    Cathie, I have never done painting on a baby onesies but have painted with acrylic paint on baby shirts for friends. Usually this is done to cover up stains and make the shirts last. I used to paint shirts and give them away to friends as gifts, also paint shirts for my daughters when they were younger and again I used acrylic paints and brushes. I love to create shirts, right now I am in the process of painting bibs for a friend who is expecting within the next two months. Alas no grandchildren for me yet just granddogs! I haven’t painted anything for them to wear yet, but I might have to soon! Love the idea of having a book to get ideas from!

    Hi Cathie!

    I love Folk Art Fabric paint! I have painted on lots of shirts… but never a snapsuit… would love the inspiration to do so!

    Thanks!!
    Carrie

  34. anna0099 says

    I did some fabric painting on a Halloween costume when I was little with my sisters… we were “punk rockers” and it mainly involved dribbling paint everywhere, but it was a lot of fun!

  35. MommyMakeMe says

    I alter snap suits as baby gifts all the time by sewing on fabric swatches. Fabric paint is fun but I also like to add fabric medium to acrylic to get more colors.

  36. TBenney says

    I have used the iron-ons to alter snap suits then had to use fabric paint to fix some faulty iron ons. After fixing a couple I decided to just use the fabric paint and get creative! 🙂

  37. funkycrafter says

    i haven’t altered any snapsuits but i have painted on a few t-shirts. i am also getting supplies ready to do some painting on canvas fabric. i have seen some wonderful accessories and embellishments painted on canvas and wnat to give it a try. your blog candy is fantastic. hillikayathotmaildotcom

  38. Pat says

    I have altered a snapsuit by tie-dying it magenta and pulling up little twists all over that turned out to look like little flowers on it when it was finished… quite cute! This giveaway set will be great to make a ton of cute snapsuits! Thank you!

  39. Alyssa says

    I’ve altered a snapsuit by appliqueing to the front. I tried some paint for Valentine’s shirts…they were terrible. It was spray fabric paint, and I think I would have been successful with the regular bottle and brush style. Maybe I could win a fabulous prize and try it out!

  40. æ·lyn says

    I’ve used – and still use fabric paint. It was my mom who taught me how when I was a kid. Today, I still customize plain t-shirts or even plushies with fabric paint for that personal touch. Thank for such a wonderful giveaway!

  41. Cari says

    I haven’t worked with fabric paint before but love the idea. I just made a ruffle-bum onesie for a friend having a girl. I have a 4mo oldboy and would love to create something fun for him

  43. carrierhoades says

    FUN! Yes, I have altered a onsie before, using fabric paint and rubber stamps, we made them at my baby shower. I love the ones you make and would love to try it out, before my baby gets too big!

  44. Do Be Do Bead Do says

    What a great giveaway! My very first craft sale was a onesie that I had crossed stitched a cute little strawberry on. Adorable. Would love to try your techniques, even though my babies are teenagers now!

  48. lizziea says

    I’ve never worked with a baby snapsuit before but it looks like so much fun! I’m a long time lover/user of fabric paint — the love affair started in 4th grade when we designed t-shirts for Earth Day and I never stopped 🙂 My favorite thing to do these days is mix iron-on graphics with fabric paint and glitter…or sometimes spraypaint over textured/patterned stencils! I’m currently in college and hoping to turn my love of design into a career. Wish me luck!

  49. birrrd says

    I’ve done/used both. One time I went to a baby shower where we decorated the little baby outfits with fabric paints. It was a lot of fun for us and for the mom since she had so many unique shirts for her little one.

  50. Kristy says

    I have done several different variations of baby outfits. I like using freezer paper to use as a stencil. Fabric paint is great. We did a onesie party for my friends baby shower using all this fun stuff. She enjoyed it and we enjoyed making them.

  53. Kristie says

    I have done some fabric painting. One year when my kids were little we did painted pillow cases as the craft at my daughters birthday party. The kids had a ball and went home with a fun and useful project.
    Thanks for the opportunity to win these great supplies.

    I have used fabric paint and iron-ons on toddler clothing. I am looking forward to making cute onesies for all my friends that are expecting. What a great give-away! Thanks for the chance to win 🙂

  56. Tiff says

    I have never done either one but since I found out I’m going to be an aunt again . . . I think I have the excuse to try this out!

  57. Christine says

    I love to make fun clothing for all the little ones in my family and friends kids! I have run out of paint and supplies so I am crossing my fingers!

  59. wendyvee says

    Don’t have any little guys … so I haven’t altered any baby clothes.

    I’ve never used fabric paint, but I have some great ideas for it!

  62. Sygnet Creations says

    I have never painted on a snapsuit but I have used rit dye to put a bit of life back into some dingy whites.

    I am currently working on a blanket for my dear friends where I am using stamps and fabric paint!

    Can’t wait to see your book in stores!

  64. KristinTheLockstar says

    We used fabric paint to make a onesie match my husbands shirt for my son when he came home from the hospital. It was a lot of fun to make, but didn’t turn out so well.

    Looking forward to the release of your new book. I could learn so much from it!

  66. Jennifer F B says

    I have used paint when doing quick and easy stuff for my kids sports teams- now that I have a toddler and a baby on the way – they can all wear school colors. The mascot is a horse which is an easy enough stamp! Yeah! Thanks Kathy for the great ideas.

  67. Shari says

    I have never painted on a onesie or a snapsuit but I have just recently used fabric paints for snow painting and lace dyeing. I would love to have this collection of goodies so I can try other fabric painting techniques.

  70. Jessica says

    I have not altered a baby snapsuit yet, but I would love to try! It looks like a lot of fun and I’ve got a lot of nieces and nephews I can give them to! 😀

    Hi Cathie,

    No I nver altered a baby snappy onsie but I have used fabric paint before! I had a birthday party for my daughter in which all the girls brought a plain tee to decorate at the party. It was their favor to take home and a memory of my daughters b-day. I povided the paint, glitter gems etc..it was a blast!

  81. Melissa says

    I have altered some onesies for my daughter. I have used iron ons and a bedazzler. I have used fabric paint to write things on them and want to try monoprints.

  85. Robin Woods says

    Definitely used fabric paint! Never a baby snapsuit. BUT – my best friend in the world is preggo with her first baby and I’d LOVE to make these for her!! Please, please, please PICK ME!! Thanks so much for sharing!

  86. Lelah says

    I have a 7 week old little boy, and I miss crafting! I pre-ordered the book, but I ‘d love to win some supplies to get me started. I used fabric paint when I was little, but not recently. I’ve never altered a snap suit, but I sure have dressed my son in a ton of them!!

  89. ELLIE says

    I have used fabric paint – designing t-shirts for a day care I used to own – so that when we took the kids on an outing they all had the same kind of t-shirt – love it~!~

  90. Marianna says
