I would like a polkadot table cloth for a part I am having but can not find one in the right colors. I was wondering if I could paint polkadots on the tablecloth. If so what type of paint should I use?
 
Tempera paint. Make sure to use a stencil. It might bead a little. It will depend on the table cloth. Don't get water in the brush, or it will cause it to bead.

Dries fast, cleans up easily and is non-toxic. You can buy it at Wal-Mart or OfficeMax.

The first link is a brief history, the second is product info.

But if the paint isn't working, use stickers. You can go into the scrap booking/craft aisle and get funky shapes and colors along with polkadots. There are a lot of stickers that aren't ugly or fragile.
