  Step 1

  Start off with a plain tote bag- I got mine from walmart in the arts and crafts section for about $3- and wipe it clean with a dry towel or rag.

• 

  Step 2

  I did a sketch of the Hogwarts castle on mine and inserted a cardboard box so paint wouldn't soak through. You can freehand something, or do a quick google search to find an outline of what you want. (If you do that, just cut it out with scissors or a craft knife and trace around it with a pencil.)

• 

  Step 3

  With a small paint brush do a quick outline of your sketch- it doesn't have to be perfect, you can touch it up later!

• 

  Step 4

  With a larger brush fill in your outline. Near the bottom I added a bit of water to my paint to give it a bit of a washed/grey feel.
  You can now go around your edges to fine tune any mistakes you might've made, if not you can move on.

  Step 5

  I decided to add a favorite quote of my friends- "It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live"
  Again, you can go online and find an outline of a banner and cut and trace it onto your bag. Once you fill it in, let the paint dry before writing on it with a pencil. Using a small brush (or fine tip sharpie) you can add your quote.

  Step 6

  Now you're finished. Just let it dry, then flaunt it around! It's great for carrying books, and extra jacket, your laptop, wallet, anything!
