DIY deathly hollows bag





what you need:
  • a hessian bag
  • a textile pen or permanent marker
  • a ruler
  • black fabric paint
  • a flat bristle brush
what you do:
  • choose the size of your sign; I decided to start about 4cm from each side
  • mark the corners with a little dot
  • take the ruler and connect the dots
  • decide at which hight you want the circle to start
  • draw it inside the triangle; remember that the ring has to merge with the sides of the triangle
  • don't worry too much about little mistakes, 'cause we're gonna cover it all with fabric paint anyway
  • use the brush to paint on the fabric paint; simply follow the pre-drawn lines with it
  • this brush helps us to get even edges
  • I expanded the lines at the corners a little, just because I prefer it that way; in case you wanna do that to, hold the brush sideways to get a random effect
  • let the paint dry; turn the bag inside out; put something in between back and front and then iron it for about 5-10 minutes
  • all done!
