If it is new, it is advisable to wash it first to remove any manufacturing residue.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_2_Design_and_planning\"><\/span>Step 2: Design and planning<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Before applying the paint, it is useful to have a design in mind. <b>You can draw your design on paper first or use templates if you wish.<\/b>. You can also choose to paint freely directly on the fabric.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_3_Paint_selection\"><\/span>Step 3: Paint selection<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>It is important to choose the right fabric paint to ensure a durable, wash-resistant finish. <b>Nazca Colors offers a wide range of high quality<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nazcacolors.com\/en\/fabric-paint\/\"> textile paints<\/a> that are perfect for this project.<\/b>.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_4_Protection_of_the_work_area\"><\/span><strong>Step 4: Protection of the work area<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Place a protective <b>protective surface under the tote bag to prevent paint from transferring to other surfaces.<\/b>.

Then, fix the paint by applying heat with an iron for a few minutes.
