Make some Fake “tattoo” tights

September 24, 2011 by Denise Felton 1 Comment

Here’s a brilliant idea from the Urban Threads e-newsletter:

Every once in awhile we get a photo of one of you, newly tattooed with an Urban Threads design. Like the idea, but not the commitment? Craft up some tattoo tights, and wear your favorite design on your skin for just a day! We’ll show you how to decorate a pair of stockings with fabric-safe markers to give you the illusion of some new ink. Check out the tutorial … it might just come in handy for that Halloween costume!
