Sweeten your accessories with a cute donut tote that’s easy to make and easy on the eyes! Craft Box Girls will show you how to add a delectable touch to a simple tote bag using felt, Puffy Paint and Aleene’s Fabric Fusion.
What you need:
Puffy 3D Paint
Tote bag
Felt in desired colors
Scissors
Letter stencils
Pencil
Trim in desired color
Scratch paper
Tape
Circular items for tracing
Step 1
For this easy project, you don’t need to track down a special pattern, you can make a circle with a center cutout by tracing any circular items onto a piece of scratch paper and cutting it out. For the frosting, use whatever circular item you traced for the center of the donut, and just make a wavy line for the outer edges of the frosting.
Step 2
Once you have your patterns created, use a pencil to trace them onto felt, then cut out. Iron your tote so it’s nice and smooth before gluing the pieces in place.
Step 3
Use Fabric Fusion to glue your large circle onto the center of your tote, then glue the frosting piece on top of the circle.
Step 4
Next decide what you want your tote quote to say and cut out the letter stencils needed.
Step 5
Arrange the letter stencils around the donut and tape down to help hold in place.
Step 6
Use your pencil to lightly trace the letters onto the tote bag, using the stencils as a guide.
Step 7
Remove the letter stencils and get ready to paint!
Step 8
Working from the top of the tote down (so you don’t run the risk of smearing paint by working in different directions), outline your lettering and donut with Puffy Paints in whatever colors you like!
Step 9
Don’t forget to add sprinkles to your donut!
Step 10
Add a finishing touch to your tote by gluing vibrant trim across the top edge. Let the tote dry flat until the glue and paint are completely dry.
