If we didn't know it was faded--we wouldn't know! I like it like that! I have a few very faded wall hangings, but I try to see them as done in new colors. :roll:

Paint sticks are awesome!!! They do not bleed...they stay right where you put them :D However, they do cover up the stitching...it would be next to impossible to avoid that and still cover all of the faded fabric:wink:

Tiffany, thanks for the Paint Stik link. I've never heard of these but I checked out the link and they look so cool! I like that they're non-toxic and it makes me think they'd be great for a fun project with my kids.
