Canvas Bags



I'm joining Susan in her Metamorphosis Monday. It's a quick transformation and easy as well.



I took basic canvas bags from Hobby Lobby. They came in this set, great bright colors.

And...turned them into this.



These iron-on letters (also from HL) were so easy. Just press on the cotton setting for approx. 30 seconds. I re-ironed them for the same amount of time a few minutes later to make sure they were secure.

Bows were made and pinned to the inside so they can be changed.

Just imagine the possibilities!
I'm thinking about buttons, jewels, etc...
Have fun making your own canvas bags!

Thanks so much for visiting.

  4. Oh, so pretty. What a great idea to just pin on the bows so that they can be changed out. Thanks for the peek.
