Materials:
– canvas bags
– cardstock or newspaper
– fabric paint
– sponge brushes or daubers
– stencils {ours are Martha Stewart}
Step 1: Place some cardstock or newspaper in your bag to prevent paint from going through to the other side.
Step 2: Use fabric paint and a sponge brush or dauber to apply paint to the bag using desired stencils.
That’s really all there is to it. Just make sure you don’t put your stencils or your hand down in wet paint, and you’re good. Let it dry completely before filling the bag.
I think they turned out just adorable, and he is beyond thrilled with them. It’s cute to see how proud he is of his handiwork…he wants to show it to everyone, so he’s beside himself with excitement that I put it here for, as he says “everyone in the whole wide world” to see.
They’re the perfect size for filling with candy and treats or with plastic eggs, which is what’s in ours at the moment. If you like them, I’d love for you to leave a little comment I can read to him…it would make his day!

He did such a great job! I was looking for a craft/favor for my son’s kindergarten Easter party. Love this idea. Where did you buy the canvas bags?
