I have the best, most talented and outstanding friends anyone could ever dream of. Except now I have to learn how to walk with my legs drawn (pun not intended) together all the time.
How did your friend get the images on the tights? Hand-painted or ironed on? I'm really interested in decorating my own tights, but I'm not sure how acrylic fabric paint will work - if it has enough stretch. Thanks!
Actually, it's silkscreen printing; I don't think you can get that kind of quality and detail with acrylic fabric paint. They're from a friend who worked at some kind of fashion workshop where they produced printed tights like that ^^ Sorry for not being able to help, but good luck with decorating yours, though! What kind of motif did you want on them?
I've always wanted to learn silkscreening, so maybe I shall set myself to it, finally. This Etsy site has some really fun and/or elegant designs that I'm fond of. I love swirly bits: http://www.etsy.com/shop/tattoosocks I purchased a pair of white thigh-highs where one of them has the octopus on it, but they're a bit out of my price range to buy all the ones I want. (Isn't it always that way?)
