    acrylic paint + Fabric

    Started almost 2 years ago · Last post almost 2 years ago ·
    As far as I know acrylic paint can't be washed out clothes.
    I always get warned when I start painting with acrylic paint.

    How to make paper stick to fimo clay?

    Started almost 2 years ago · Last post almost 2 years ago ·
    Maybe Mod Podge?

    I've never tried glueing paper to fimo clay, but I guess that's a good option. Then you can glue over the paper and it will dry as a coat over the paper.

    I have a box of a little more then 1000 zippers. Any Ideas?

    Started about 2 years ago · Last post about 2 years ago ·
    Maybe make a bag out of them. Just sew them on a base-fabric. Or make a zipperbracelet. There is a How-To on the site.
    Or if you want too, you can donate some to me ;-) I don't have zippers and they are expensive to buy. So I never really made something with a zipper.

    play-doh as fimo??

    Started over 2 years ago · Last post over 2 years ago ·
    I think you shouldn't use play-doh.
    My experience is that it dries out when you forget to put it back in it's container. And if it's dry it cracks and crumbles.

    Help! Birthday present

    Started almost 3 years ago · Last post almost 3 years ago ·
    Thanks a lot!

    A stencil is a good idea.
    I really don't know much, but he has a Hyves page (is a dutch version of Facebook I guess) and there he wrote down loads of artists he likes. So if I just look for CD covers from those artists I could stencil one on a shirt!
    I hope that I still have the Transfer paper at my parents home.

    My cousins are celabrating there birthdays together on May 30th. They both are asking for money, but I want to give them something creative. For my niece I have painted a little drawer, but I can't find anything for my nephew.

    Ageing/Dirty Fabric?

    Started about 3 years ago · Last post about 3 years ago ·
    If it's possible in your neighborhood: Drag the fabric through the dirt. To make it very dirty, wait untill there was a rainy day and than drag it through the mud. Just let the fabric dry inside your house and rub off the excess dirt.
