Textile marker + Cotton Bag


I shall gratefully greet you, great visitor and friend.

So as the title probably pretty clearly explains (and as followed by the picture above), I've found great joy of decorating boring cotton bags. The first one (which has no picture because a) it has not completely been completed and b) because i do not want to show it yet mainly because of the reason a)) was made because my friend asked me to decorate a bag for her, so she bought the bag and a marker:) I made the one above because I got super excited, and happened to find a lonely cotton bag from a second hand store - perfectly in a good condition - and decided to make a good use of it.


Now that I think of this cartoon put up here, I bet you'll are gonna compare my version of megusta to this one above. SCREW YOU.  My version is my version, and in my defense, the scales are not properly shown in the picture .__. One does not simply compare a piece of art to a thousand-times-copied-and-pasted internet character.

So, why are cotton bags so freaking awesome?
They...

  • Can be recycled
  • Are strong and durable 
  • Are cheap to produce
  • They seem to be 'the big thing' these days (That's not a reason to like something though, no no.)
They save the environment! What could be better...Of course there is no black and white choices when it 
comes to saving the environment (or at least protecting it) because some of the bags are made from materials that use fossil fuels etc etc etc but but (when talking generally about those reusable shopping bags that use e.g. polypropylene) yea.

Peace out and get a textile marker and make those boring bags funky. yea.


YES I'm super attractive. thus I reduced the size of the photo.

And I realize that I sound like one of those american (or any?) xoxoxoxo girls (no offence to anyone), I'm just missing a "love ya'll honnayyss" which I should probably add.

ps. The cartoon is from the derp & derpina fan page from fb. and source was http://www.greenlivingtips.com/articles/283/1/Reusable-bags.html.
