hi, I making ashe's wedding veil but I got a problem
when I painted the veil (in organza) the paint goes trought the fabric..
I want my paitning to be opaque (I not sure of the translation of this word so let say I don't want to see throught the painitng)
I tried with opaque paint for fabric, acrylic and 3D paints
all goes throught
I don't I can use ribbons, and I have two others solutions to do it but they a long to make thatwhat I prefer it work with paint

so de you have any ideas ?

I don't know the extent of the painting you're trying to do, but maybe you could affix some solid, matching, opaque fabric either on the front or back of the veil, just in the areas you're trying to paint (like an applique?) so the paint will have something to stick to.

You will have to layer the paint, so that the holes will fill up.
