99 Cents Grocery Bags!

These are $.99 reusable shopping bags that can be found at Publix. Acrylic paint goes on easy and than it was sealed with a brush on top coat of decoupage glue. I actually freehand paint my shopping bags and almost everything else I do. I started painting right out of college in a "personalizing" gift shop and they took so many orders that we ( the artists) couldn't keep up. There was no time for ruff drafts or patterns. Every order was quick and original free hand! It has turned out to be my best asset because it took that fear away of ruining the product! It just takes practice! So Fun and try it yourself!!!

Shipping Tag Favor

Now that it is the new year, we are already looking forward to Spring Break, Graduation and then summer. The days left at school before this time, just flys by and being ready for parties, banquets and booster events takes quiet a bit of organization. Here is a tie-on favor used for a band end of season dinner that was attached to a rose for senior moms. Be Good to your Volunteers too!
