Hi! I made this bag at the end of summer. I had to start school shopping so i was going to buy a new bag offline(boo =P). None of the bags i saw were cool or original! and when i found a bag that I liked it was wayyyy too expensive (this always happens)! So i had a tote bag that i got for free but the pattern on it was a little too dark for my liking, so i made my own bag out of it!
I first placed a few pictures i got from the internet and magazines a little at a time and then taped them on with clear tape and it made them look laminated. the top came out a little screwd up lol. I get complements on the bag almost everyday from random people and my friends! and the coolest thing is that i can tell them i made it myself! also if you decide to do this project i suggest you put duct tape on the bag first so that the tape will stick on good
<('-'<) (^'-'^) (>'-')>


Ok so here are pictures of the finished bag!

i suggest a flat tote bag (thats what i used) that way its a lot easier putting on the pictures
