  • DIY: Painted Gold Elbow Patches

    Inspired by those adorable painted knee patches from 3191 Miles Apart floating around the world wide web, I updated Henry’s cardigan with painted gold elbow patches made with a freezer stencil (instrutions here). Boy do I love shiny gold fabric paint (and I have a feeling with the holidays coming up my obsession will only be magnified). More gold paint projects coming your way!
