Paint Bellows are unique painting tools with a narrow spout and a wide, accordion-like chamber for propelling out the paint. To use the Paint Bellows, you will need a good pincer-like grasp to press the chamber tight. This helps to expel all the air from the chamber.

Dip the spout into a glob of paint and release the chamber. This release of pressure will cause the paint to rush inside of the Paint Bellow. When you are ready to use the Paint Bellow, rapidly squeeze and release the chamber to push globs of paint out.

I’ve started with a soft peach-orange color. This will be the base color. You can keep adding as many splatter spots as you like throughout the hat.

Mix other colors such as a soft teal or bright yellow into the mix and get a unique design!
