We had played with fabric and acrylics with Jay a while back and thought that it was time to get some more acrylic stains on the kitchen table, wall, chair covers and floor.
I am working on the skirts but I decided to use all acrylics and cover the first painting with glue, have the Ls paint over for it, wash and then sew the skirts.
In between these steps we had some time and the Ls made beautiful fabric pictures out of the left-over fabric.
I really, really love what they did with it and we have found the PERFECT use for them.
You'll have to be a bit more patient for this post since there are several parts to it.
All I can say is that it's for the Year Of Giving Series and that this project fricking ROCKS!!!
I am so super excited about it, I wish I could spill the juice right now but it's not complete yet.
So for today the creation of the Ls will be the only secret I can tell ...
ahhhh, I love being mysterious :)
Getting started.
I feel very copy-cat"tish" since I even bought the same materials as Filth Wizardry used.
A job for Judy
Artists at work
These are going to be the skirts
Letting it hang loose
An Artists "Tool Belt"
FYI, she only wears the diapers because they have Woody and Buzz on them ... we are diaper free.
I think I may have to just buy her some boy undies since they don't make Toy Story ones for Ls.

Step 1 paint your picture
(you can use acrylics like we did above for the skirts or permanent markers like we did below)
Check out Lulu's green noodle-head
Step 2 - cover the individual drawings with white glue and let dry
Step 3 - paint over everything with watered down acrylics
(go crazy, the thin colors run together and give it a need tie die effect).
Step 4 - let dry, launder, hang to dry
Step 4 - ENJOY your masterpiece
