DIY Painted Linen Napkins

Materials

• Linen or cotton napkins
• Small thin-tip paintbrushes
• Neon fabric paint (such as Scribbles)
• Alphabet rubber-stamp set
• Ruler
• Pencils with flat (new) eraser tips

Directions

1. Use a paintbrush to apply an even layer of paint to a stamp’s rubber initial.

2. Stamp in the corner of the napkin. Repeat for second initial, using a ruler to line up initials.

3. Apply paint to a pencil eraser. Stamp eraser around the napkin edge, creating dots an inch apart. Reapply paint for each dot.

4. You can add small dots by dipping the end of a paintbrush handle into the paint. Stamp it between larger dots.
