hey everyone sarah from sarahtypes.com and today I'm gonna show you how I made
this hand-lettered denim jacket. I did this for my niece so it's a super small
tiny child's jacket and I added some flowers as well as her name so the first
thing I did was I took a picture of the back of the jacket so that I could
sketch out what I wanted to do in this area here so to take the photo I
actually used my iPad Pro and I took a picture of the back and then once I had
the photo I imported it into my favorite app for lettering and drawing and that
would be procreate and then I just grabbed one of my favorite brush
lettering pens and started drawing what I wanted on the jacket
okay so to map out where I'm gonna draw I actually grabbed seamstress chalk
which is what I use on fabric and I just kind of put a box around where I want
the letters to be and then also outline where one of the flowers will be
and then within the box of the letters I have three letters so I just
kind of sectioned it out into three letters as well this way I know that I
have enough room on my left and my right but the majority of it is going to be
freehand because it's just so much easier than trying to chalk it out but
you could probably use just regular chalk maybe test a spot and see if it
rubs off easily this chalk wipes off and if not it
will just wash off so the tools I used were this tulips soft matte fabric
paint and then I grabbed a bunch of brushes you want a more stiff brush if
it's too soft then it's going to be difficult because fabric is a little bit
trickier than paper so the stiffer the brush the better and then also you
probably want a small brush because this is somewhat detailed so to start off I
lightly drew the letters it was pretty much just kind of like really dusting
them on with the brush so I could at least see the outline but could mostly
fix it with like the thickness of my letters if I felt like it was a little
bit off and then once I had the outline I went in and really put more pressure
and more of the paint on the fabric and just made it more opaque it does take a
couple coats I went over these letters a few times to
get it like a really nice bright white and also to really clean the lines
because on denim if you just go over it once it can be
not as sharp as you'd like it to be around the letter so to do that I did go
in few times and kind of just dab the paint in certain spots in order to get a
sharper line
so now that I got my letters in I'm gonna go in and do the flowers so you
won't see all of the flower work that I do I'm not really great at florals
I've never actually really tried florals so this is my first time
I think the second flower turned out better than the first one but all in all
they're not that bad
so I'm just finishing up the last flower here just wanted to talk to you a bit
about the paint so I did use tulip paint which is washable and permanent and
should dry soft so it moves with your fabric and doesn't crack I did read that
jacquard paint was the best one but I couldn't find it so I'm not really sure
how it compares but if you're looking to do this you can definitely try the
jacquard but this one worked great too so I hope you enjoyed if you have any
questions definitely have a comment below and let me know
