school bag modification

[piratecore.livejournal.com]

Well I went to my local thrift shop, and saw this awesome brand new messenger bag for five dollars. The only problem was, the top flap was this ugly green colour with a giant embroidered picture of Cailou (you know that cartoon for like 5 year olds?) on it. So what I did was heat up the old glue gun, and cover it with some black and grey pinstripe fabrice I bought. Then I made a stencil of a skull an crossbones, and painted it onto the bag using glittery silver fabric paint. I'm pretty proud of it. I think it worked pretty well, considering the fact that I didn't have access to a sewing machine.
