I had other plans for the post following the last, but now I feel compelled to show this:
I painted that last night. Wooo!
Randy and I finally got around to trying some freezer paper stenciling and this was my first project.
I got the bag at The Gap for like, $15. I thought I'd personalize it a bit though so I don't have a bag like every else in America. Ha.
Want to see Randy's project?
He's funny. If you don't know sign language or couldn't even tell those are supposed to be hands...those are the letters F and U.
Funny guy.
He's quite the perfectionist so he wanted to try it out on something before he made it "officially". That's just an undershirt...real shirt coming soon.
I have all sorts of ideas for things I want to stencil now. That's the way it works I suppose though. Learn a new craft and you start thinking of ways to apply it to everything.
Very cute! I love adding all sorts of things to my canvas bag too!

This turned out SO well! I love the bag - it is so big and useful that way. Great little birdie :)

Your bag is so cute! Are those the boots???? I love them! I work for a pad making company and we had done some retail pads. They were covered pads and on each cover was 1 letter from the alphabet. Like monograms. Well I picked the F and the U and I have them proudly displayed on my desk. Everyone cracks up that see's it. Randy and I would get along just fine.
We also print note cubes. We did one for Kotex. You can guess who got one of those! a yup.
