Hey guys, sorry i haven't posted anything new. I haven't had the time lately to put anything new up. Iv been so busy doing stuff and i forgot about the blog. I'm trying to get ready for school cuz i start next month, yay. I haven't been doing to well with school the last few years so i'm excited to get back to it. Anyways, here is a pre-preparation tip for school.
So you got the new back-pack you have been wanting to start the new year out with, but find that its just a tad bit plain and want to spruce it up a bit. Well here's a tip that will help you do just that.
Tip #1
Dig up some money and go buy patches. Patches are a fun way to add your own flavor to any garment or bag. Make it your own with your fave band logos, pictures, anything.
Tip #2
Take some sand paper or a cheese grater and tater up around the bag. This adds for a great vintage, worn out look. Also, if you have one. Take a dremel and start to make holes in it. Take and old piece of fabric of your choice. Put it behind the hole and sew around the hole to keep the fabric in place for some added flair or you can simply leave it as is. No matter how you do it, it will look good no matter what.
Tip #3
Make a stencil from your favorite picture and paint it on with some fabric paint, or spray paint. Or you can just splatter the paint on for a fun and scattered look.
Tip #4
Don't worry about mess ups. Honestly, i don't think you can mess this up unless your just that skilled. Any mess up will add a personal stamp on any bag. So even if you think you did something wrong, don't sweat it because it makes it all that much better.
Got any other cool ideas to make your bag one of a kind try it. Make it yours, and have fun doing it.
