What you'll need:
Beach towel
Ocean themed foam stamps
Fabric paint, or acrylic paint plus textile medium
Large paintbrush
Cardboard


How to make it:
If you are not using fabric paint, mix together 2 parts acrylic craft paint and 1 part textile medium.
Wash and dry the towel, do not use fabric softener. Place cardboard underneath the towel to catch any seepage.
Use foam stamps to decorate towel with fish, shells, and starfish. (See photo.)
If the paint is not very prominent, use a paintbrush, using a dabbing motion, to add more paint to the design. (See photo.)
To make the water, use a dabbing motion with a large stiff bristled brush.
To write your name, use a stiff bristled brush.
Allow to dry completely before using.
