Customizing Sari With Acrylic Paint.

Hello! This tutorial is basically about painting clothes(sari) with acrylic paints. The process is very easy and fun!
Painting on fabrics is always fun and you can turn your boring old clothes into new and fashionable one. You can paint on many kinds of fabrics.
We painted on a sari which is a traditional garment in our country.

The things we needed:
1. A sari
2. Drawing tools (pencil, compass, drawing sheet)
3. Acrylic paints
4. Paint brushes (round; size 4,9)
5. Paint mixing palatte
All these products were very easy to get and affordable.

We wanted to draw a design that would be easy to paint but would also look gorgeous.
So, we drew a mandala. The mandala contains some items that reflect our culture! Also we drew the designs very simply so that the painting work can be done perfectly.
After that we chose a sari of pastel orange colour as it was going very well with our design.

After finalizing the mandala design, we copied it all over the sari. We pinned the sari over the paper and redrew the design carefully on the sari.

As the colour of our sari was pastel orange, we mixed the acrylic paints and created a colour palatte that compliments the colour of the sari and shine in their own way.
We also added some bold shades to balance the colours and make the sari more elegent.
We selected colour for every mandala item carefully so that the design can be seen easily and the colours don't match or clash too much.

We painted every little section of the mandala very delicately and after the first layer of painting we gave our mandala some shades, borders and details!

After the painting was done we waited for 48 hours and then washed the sari. And here is our final result!

We hope you enjoyed this tutorial!
