Textile Decoration on a Shopping Bag and a Shoe Bag

1.   Decoration on shoe bag: Put a piece of plastic inside the bag, protecting the back in order to avoid smudging. Draw a free-hand design with a pencil or use the template which is available as a separate PDF-file for this idea.

2.   Fill in the design - according to your own taste – using the opaque Textile Solid fabric paint.

3.   When dry, draw outlines and details with a black textile marker.

4.   You may attach masking tape onto the bag to use as a ruler for the letters in the template. Draw words using the template. Here we have used neon-coloured textile markers (they are also opaque on dark textiles).

5.   Decoration on the shopping bag: Make blobs with a thick, round brush and Textile Solid fabric paint. Leave to dry.

6.   Personalise each blob with arms, legs, eyes, mouth, ears, hair etc. using black and neon-coloured textile markers.
