______________________________________________________________

Step 1.
Lay out scrap newspaper on a flat surface to protect your table, then place the calico bag on top. Try to flatten the calico bag as much as possible, this will make it easier to decorate.

Step 2.
Think of a design - it can be anything! Gently trace your design with pencil on to the bag.

Step 3.
Get creative using paints, fabric markers, ribbons or anything you like to decorate your bag.

Step 4.
Once your design is finished, wait about 24 hours for the paint dry to completely. This will reduce smudging of your design.
