Hello ScraPerfect fans, Kim L. here today to share with you my latest project. I upcycled a canvas bag into a shabby chic gift bag suitable for any woman in your life. I hope you like it! I couldn’t have made this without some amazing products from ScraPerfect. Here it is:
I started out with a plain canvas bag and adhered some white lace to serve as a background with the
Best Glue Ever and I only had to use a very thin line. Then, I secured the cream doily to the center and lace trim to the sides, also with the Best Glue Ever. I cut the canvas image of the lady into a circle shape and attached it to the center of the cream doily with the Best Glue Ever again.
I layered a cream dangle lace and a lavender lace on the bottom of the gift bag and then added a piece of purple bling in the center with a glue dot made from the Best Glue Ever. Here is a close up of the laces on the bottom of the bag:
Next, I started embellishing and added a delicate lavender trim around the edge of the image. I adhered some lavender sprigs to the bottom of the image, and a couple of doily centers as well. Everything was glued to the bag with ScraPerfect’s amazing
Best Glue Ever. I utilized my
As a finishing touch, I gave the entire front of the bag a few spritzes of purple shimmer spray from my stash. Deciding to keep the back of the bag simple, I chose to only add a matching cream doily, which was adhered with the
Best Glue Ever.
I enjoyed making this gift bag so much that I was inspired to try a larger one. So here is a bonus project, all made with
ScraPefect products too. This one was done in a different color palette, hope you like this shabby gift bag too:
