fabric spray paint?

do they make a spray paint for fabric? i'm looking to revamp a small lampshade by painting it. i'd wrap ribbon on it but it has a slight curve to it and the ribbon won't work. if you have any other ideas, i'm open to suggestions.

    instead of ribbon if u use bias tape it will curve around because it is cut diagonally from fabric and it is designed to take curves. u can get some in really pretty patterns, satin, cotton etc. you could just use regular fabric paint and paint or stencil designs on. ostrich feather trim looks good and you can get all kinds of feathers dyed in different colours. glue on beads sequins or diamantes or try decorative trims. just remember to use a fireproof spray on any items that u add on just in case! i have heard of spray paints for fabrics, normally used with an airbrush but it can be expensive to buy the airbrush.

    They probably do. I would chack a local art store.

    But....normal spray paint usually stains fabric so it might work

    weirdly I took my son to a fair this last summer, and they were making shirts with spray paint, real spray paint, it was really cool and his shirt turned out really awesome :)
