DIY- MICKEY MOUSE DANSHIKI BAG


Hey Diary Keepers, I know I have been gone for long and I'm sorry, also this post is long over-due (My Apologies -__-). Remember the MOONWALKER BAGS? Yh, so here's a new way of designing them or any other bag you love and want to revamp their look.

   There was a time (between 2012-2013 there about) the Mickey Mouse template/t-shirt was in vogue, Though I wasn't part but I can sure remember them, I have had this template for a while now, so I thought it better to use it for my bag.

 REQUIRMENT:
  - Mickey Mouse Template (I got mine HERE and printed it on paper at 110%)
  - The Material you want to use (could be Ankara, Danshiki, Jean.etc)
  - Pair of Scissors.
  - Glue (you can use fabric glue, but I used TopBond)
  - And Your Bag!
           


        NOTE: Steps 1&2 has already been done by me long time ago, and I'm sorry I have no pictures 😞
     STEP 1: Download and print the template, place the template on your material (use pins to hold it firmly) then cut it carefully. (As much as I would love to have had a picture, I don't)
     STEP 2: Do a Fray Check. Use a clear polish to paint around the edge of your fabric, to prevent it from fraying.
     STEP 3: Place the template on your bag (where you want it placed; middle, side.etc). Make sure its placed correctly by moving back a bit.
    
     STEP 4: Carefully place a book/grocery bag in between the bag, so as not to let the glue seep to the back.Glue the fabric to the bag section by section or start from the ears/middle and then Leave to Dry!
  
 
        Viola! your bag is ready to go and looking stylish.
  













  I hope this was useful and easy to follow, How else would you re-design your bag and what other DIYs do you know, kindly share in the comment section below. I also have a new collection of the MOONWALKER BAGS, be sure to check my Instagram page (evetonnia) for pictures and stay updated, new Collection of MOONWALKER FOOTWEARS, out soon!
    Exams are coming up  very soon (Wednesday to be precised), so I might be MIA for a while, but be sure to be back as soon as I can. So what's been going on with y'll? Would love to know 😉
