I bought some fabric paint at Michaels for a reasonable price that came out to about $9 using the coupons they offer weekly. Parchment paper, costs about $3-4 dollars and templates you can print or use other pictures you may have in coloring books or magazines, you may have lying around. Even kids picture books! Of course if you draw well or you like to create your own designs you don’t need templates.
