Here's how…
1. Cut out shapes! They're more fun if they're imperfect, so whether you're doing dashes or strips, don't be afraid to freehand!
2. Lay out pieces as you'd like onto the bag.
3. Carefully place the cotton cloth over the shapes, and iron on for about 30 seconds.
4. Once the pieces have adhered, peel off the glossy plastic coating.

How cute are they!? They're also super handy because you can wear them so many different ways…as a chest bag, traditional fanny pack, or over-the-shoulder on your back!
