    We're already starting to think about christmas projects and I was thinking about having the kids make t-shirts for their grandparents with their handprints on them but don't know what a good paint for that would be. Any suggestions?

    Moondancer: Any craft store has the fabic paints to paint on shirt. If you watch in wal mart some of them are on sale for 25 cent a bottle or 50 cent a bottle. But, alot of your craft stores carry them.

    Delta, Apple Barrel those little crafts bottle paints work. To keep the paint soft after you paint it on :lol: you will need to mix paint medium to the paint PRIOR to painting the cloth. It's also called Textile Medium just so you know. It's generally in the same area as the paints but...really depends on the store. Anybody that works at the store can help you find it.

    Happy Painting!! 8)
