DIY: Chanel Canvas Bag

Sorry that this post is coming a bit late...I meant to post this up on Friday but I have been so busy. In honor of Earth Day I thought this would be real appropriate. Here is a way you could spice up your canvas bag for every day wear! I mean who doesn't love canvas bags right?!


Here is what you'll need:
...and don't forget to grab a large round object (like a bowl or cookie holder), a compass would be even better.

Directions:

1. First you will need to make a Chanel stencil.
a. Trace out two circles onto the cardboard.


b. Use a sharpie so you can better see your work.

c. Go ahead and the interior of the logo. (Note: The center of the logo will be a loose piece so you will just have to tap it down onto the bag before you start spray painting the bag.)


2. Next step is to go ahead and tape down the stencil onto the bag with the masking tape making. Make sure the center piece is taped down real good.

3. Lay out some newspapers or an old plastic bag and start spray painting.

...Go ahead and spray on several layers to achieve a really rich and dark color.


That's all there is to it! What do you think?


BELATED HAPPY EARTH DAY AND HAPPY GOOD FRIDAY EVERYBODY!
