Don't forget to stop by the One Month To Win It blog to vote for your favorite project this week! Thank you!
This project was originally posted at She Wears Flowers...one of the most wonderful blogs around...go on over and check out Tammy's amazing work...
Here's just a little something I made when I guest-posted over there a few weeks ago ...
My super-easy, super-fast, ultra-customizable beach bag!
And here's all I used to make it:
![]() |
TWO feedsack towels...available anywhere (like Wal-Mart, Target) for really cheap... |
![]() |
regular old craft paint & stamps... |
Here's what I did:
*First I laid out one of my feedsack towels, and stamped it where I thought it needed to be stamped...

I applied the paint to the stamp with a brush so that it didn't get all clumpy... |

these are some Martha Stewart stamps I had... |
Here's how the front looked when it was all done...
Next, I placed this towel on top of the other one and roughly stitched around the sides & bottom of the towels...I used a zig-zag stitch in a bright pink just to spice things up a bit...

And, done! See, I told you it was super-easy & super-quick!
Now my family has a great, personalized, super-giant beach bag to carry all of our sand toys, flip-flops, towels, whatever!

...and it holds TONS!... |

I always love your pictures! I understand how much work it takes to make it look great and I think you do a fab job. The bag is super cute. I even think I have some of these towels around that I could use!!
ReplyDeleteSuper Cute!! Your stamping detail adds the perfect touch to this inexpensive project. I have looked at towels just like this at Walmart and wondered what I could do with them... now I know! Thanks for sharing!! AJ
