Spring has sprung – Put a little color into an old bag with this cheap and easy trick.
What you'll need:
Note: All the things found in this DIY can be bought in a fabric or craft shop.
A straw or cloth purse – a tote bag could work too. Ask your Mom if she has one you can use, if not, Target, Wal-mart, etc. sell cheap ones!
Silk flowers
Needle and thread
Scissors
Method:
Use straight pins to attach your flowers to the bag before sewing them on. This way you can figure out the best pattern without committing to it! Hint: You may want to try just one row of flowers, or an arrangement in the middle of your bag or a few in one corner.
Thread your needle and knot it at the end. Pull it through your bag from the inside out wherever you want your flower to go. Stick it right through the flower then back through the bag. Do that a few times to make sure it's on good and tight, knot it, clip it and move on to the next!
