  Step 1

  Before you start! Test your textile paint on a small part of your laptop sleeve.

  Blast it with the blow dryer, if it sticks well then... we're all set!

• 

  Step 2

  Using your masking tape draw borders, patterns, decoration etc.

• 

  Step 3

  Get your sponge brush/paint brush and apply paint on the empty, non-taped areas of the sleeve.

• 

  Step 4

  Blast it with some hot air.

• 

  Step 5

  Peel off the masking tape CAREFULLY to reveal your print.

• 

  Step 6

  Now for my sleeve I wanted to put a detailed print using rubber stamps.

  So I dabbed some paint on my rubber stamp and stamped the sleeve.

• 

  Step 7

  Before you put another layer of paint always remember to dry it out first with your dryer so it doesn't get messy.

  Also, so that your prints come out clear.

• 

  Step 8

  After your last layer of paint, heat it up once more.

  If this doesn't dry up your paint wait a little longer.
