Hi, when you click this Hometalk link you will see many posts about people who have painted fabric. Some use a wax at the end of the process and others simply stop at sanding the fabric gently for a smoother finish. Hope you enjoy the posts.

Painting fabric is super easy and super fun! I am attaching a link to a blog on how to paint fabric but the main thing you need to do is have a water mister bottle next to you. Make sure you fabric is spritzed but not totally drenched. Then paint just like you would with anything else. Dixie Belle chalk mineral paint has a really amazing coverage that will not take too much paint. Afterwards if you slightly buff with a 220 sanding grit its super smooth and not chalky or crunchy feeling. I also like to spritz with Easy Peasy Spray wax afterwards. Here is a blog ifyou want to read more! And I have attached a picture so you can see a before and after....hope that helps and have fun painting. - Teri
