    INSTRUCTIONS

    1. Fold over the top of the tote bag.
    2. Instruction #1
    3. Measure the perimeter of the bag and use scissors to cut the lace. Use Fabric Decou-Page to adhere the lace all the way around the folded portion of the bag. Measure and cut the burlap ribbon for the strap length of your choice, either for a cross-body or shoulder bag. Place the ribbon ends inside the bag at inner sides and adhere with Fabric Decou-Page.
    4. Instruction #2
    5. Use scissors to cut out a rectangle from the fabric. Measure and cut lace to go around the perimeter of the fabric rectangle. (It is easier to cut four pieces as opposed to folding around the corners.) Use Fabric Decou-Page to adhere into place.
    6. Instruction #3
    7. Cut out an owl (or character/animal of your choice). Place in the center of the rectangle and adhere in place with Fabric Decou-Page.
