Elbow patches are hot right now, but getting the look can be pricey. That's why we've created a quick and affordable way to DIY your own elbow patches. This one is inspired by Valentine's Day.
Here's what you'll need:
ABOUT THE STENCIL: We found an ordinary candy box to turn into a stencil. You can find these in dollar bins in the month of February at your favorite chain retailers. Or, make your own stencil by drawing a heart on card stock paper and cutting it out with an exacto knife.
HOT SPRAY TIP! Spray just one or two light layers of paint onto the fabric to keep it from bleeding. A little goes a long way with this project.
