Marie Claire Magazine free bag Crafts Challenge

Yesterday I bought Marie Claire Magazine and the free give away for the month is a canvas tote/shopping bag with the slogan "Plastic ain't my bag" the reverse side is blank and I thought it would make a great crafts challenge to decorate. I just used a fabric pen to decore mine a Willow Tree Bag on my blog, but its open to anything you can think to do with it. paint it, sew on buttons, fabric flowers what ever you can think to craft. obviously you need to buy the magazine if you don't already have it.

post your finished items here if you think its a good idea.

happy crafting

p.s. sorry the pictures on my blog aren't great, the downstairs light fuse went last night, i'll try and retake the pics soon.

I got my bag today (the mag will go straight in the paper bin ) but it'll have to wait til next week to get decorated as this week's devoted to getting ready for Saturdays craft fair.

The ones I've seen on here so far are gorgeous

Soupy your bag is briliant!!!

Mine is crap compared to those of you that have done them.

Today I made a denim bag to put the panel on. Got compliments on the afternoon school run

I guess, technically, that means I still have to decorate the Marie Claire one though...

I still have to decorate my Marie Claire one but I've designed some little reversible bags for our young eco-warriors. I've put a picture here on my blog
