Description

i decided i wanted galaxy print leggings last night, i didn't want to use bleach so this is my method :) sorry i have no pictures, it's pretty basic anyway :3 for some reason most of the things you need got deleted off the side so i'll list them here :) - acrylic paint in... dark blue light blue purple brown red - white fabric paint

Instructions

1

i mixed the acrylic paints with the fabric paint to give them longer lasting power so hopefully itâ€™ll last pretty long on the fabric.
2

using the sponges, dab the paint on a bit at a time and blend it into the fabric. the order i did the paint in was first dark blue, light blue, purple, white, brown and red. layering the paint of top of each other. it helps to find a reference picture, i just googled "galaxy print leggings"
3

once you've paint on the colours, paint on loads of various sized white dots, they're the stars :3
4

and there you're done :D hope you liked the tutorial!

the paint doesn't go on thick because it's rubbed in with the sponge so there's minimal cracking :)
i actually didn't have a sponge at the time so i used a large pompom XD and i didn't need to i had all the colours i needed :)
nope i've washed them a good few times at this stage and they're still perfect :)
no i painted them laid out on the floor :)
my hair was actually a disgrace that day XD i just pulled it into a messy bun with a clip and tied a bandanna around my head :) i would upload a tutorial but sadly i was stupid and have gotten my hair cut up alot XD

Did you have to paint them while wearing them?

I searched for galaxy leggings and yours came up XD
Anyway I was wondering what kind of sponge you used...I've only got a bath sponge and was wondering if it would work...also did you mix your own paint?
Thanks it's great to find someone the same age as me on this :)

I'm just wondering with acyrlic paint on Lycra or spandex leggings, would the paint crack as the fabric was stretched by my chubby legs .. I will do this to a pair of spandex leggings and find out. :P
