This past weekend I hosted my third HoliDIY party, which is when friends come over and create handmade gifts, wrapping paper, gift tags, and more. This year the DIY gift was tote bags. I ordered some plain canvas totes from amazon along with some fabric paint, and after a little pinteresting I printed some ideas that used masking tape to create designs. We added our own geometric tape designs to the bags, then painted, then peeled the tape up after they dried. Here are a few pictures of the night and I hope they inspire you to make something with your hands this holiday season, or anytime!
