This is such a great way to add some class to a garment. I love it! I fear messing it up by allowing the paint to get under the stencil so I like the idea of spraying it down. I've learned my lesson in the past. Great tip!

I am stunned. They take their gorgeous organic, seed to shelf textiles that they are known for and come at it with a gas mask and all kinds of poisonous chemicals. What a shame.
