Instructions

    • 1

      Choose a pattern to use on your cap. Place it over the area of the cap you intend to paint, and place the graphite paper face down between the pattern and the cap. Use the stylus to trace the pattern onto the fabric of the cap.

    • 2

      Use acrylic paint and brushes to fill in the pattern. Use the black Sharpie to add fine details to the painted pattern after it is completely dry.

    • 3

      Use fabric glue to stick sequins, rhinestones or lace onto the hat. You may use the glitter pen to write your name on the hat.

    • 4

      Lightly spray the entire outside of the hat with acrylic fabric spray. It will help protect the hat and provide an acrylic surface that can be wiped clean.
