BABY: DIY Handprinted Clothes Lookbook #2

My favourite thing to do while Isabella's napping is to do some more fabric painting (see my tutorial here and Isabella's first handprinted Lookbook here). I can't stress how easy it is, it's so rewarding and relaxing. I've recently started stamping tops for Isabella too, which is a whole new challenge. My latests designs have been slightly more summery, I'm just hoping they'll still fit Isabella when the summer months finally arrive! Everytime I hand stamp a piece of clothing for Isabella I ask my husband which is his favourite so far. It was the strawberries, but after making the colourful raindrops design he changed this mind to those. The colourful raindrops took the longest time to print - over 4 hours (including drying time) so I'm glad they were liked.

 The colours of Tulip Soft Fabric Paint I've used for the following designs are: Turquoise, Azalea, Ebony, Crimson Red, Marine Blue, Periwinkle and Holiday Green.
