This is how it's done

1. Choosing the napkin motif
Choose a napkin or handkerchief with a motif that you particularly like. This motif will be the main accent of your creative project.

2. Cut out from the napkins
Carefully tear or cut out the desired motifs. Remove the unprinted layers of the napkins so that only the printed paper layer remains.

3. Apply the motif to the fabric
Take your Santa boot or cotton bag and coat the desired surface with the napkin varnish for textiles.
Carefully place the prepared motif on the damp layer of varnish. Make sure that it lies smoothly and that there are no bubbles or folding stars. Coat the motif again with a thin layer of the napkin varnish. This ensures that it is completely sealed and firmly attached to the fabric.

4. Allow to dry
Allow the varnish to dry completely. This will ensure the durability of your application.

5 Fixing by ironing
To ensure that your design holds after washing (at up to 30 degrees on a gentle cycle), you need to fix the varnish. To do this, iron the fabric bag without steam. Place a piece of baking paper over the design to protect it while ironing and iron it in place for a few minutes.

With this simple process, you have successfully created a Santa's stocking or fabric bag using the napkin technique. Now all you have to do is fill it and give it as a gift! Boots and fabric bags are not only suitable as a personalised gift, but are also a special decorative element for the Advent season.
