‌Materials Needed‌: Plain cotton or linen fabric, markers or acrylic paint, double-sided tape, scissors, clear tape.


‌Steps‌:
Sketch your desired text or design on paper and cut it out to use as a template.
Trace the template onto the fabric, fill in the colors with paint or markers, and let it dry completely.
Cut out the fabric along the design's outline; you can lightly singe the edges with a lighter to prevent fraying.
Apply a layer of clear tape to the front for waterproofing and double-sided tape to the back; it is then ready to stick on.
