Sew around the perimeter to hold the seam in place

alt

Pour some paint onto a piece of scrap paper or paper place. Place some cardboard or newpaper beneath your fabric

Dip the round foam brush into the paint and press onto the fabric, twisting and turning to produce an even coat. Scatter polka dots starting from the corner out, or whatever design you’d like.

After allowing it to dry fully, fold and set your holiday table! You can throw these into the wash too
