MidweekMINDFUEL

A doodle I made some time ago came to my mind today, when thinking about how to get my dream of a design business going... How am I supposed to handle all the tasks...will I make it? Do I have the skills required? Am I running into failure? Basically: WHATever! Biggest failure will always be NOT trying anyways, right?! ;)

Tiki's DIYary #2 ^-^
...today :
~~ Chevron & Arrows doodle Bag ~~

Want it?...get it HERE

Hey fellow crafty-lovers!
. . .Finally I'm able to present another Making-Of! *yay*

This ain't really going to be a tutorial, because it's just too easy to do. . . ;)

But in case you're interested in watching the steps from a simple plain 1€ cotton tote to a unique handmade piece of Accessoire. . .
(that you can even purchase in my shop !!! =D)
. . . you might hopefully enjoy the following images. ^-^

All you need. . . (besides LOVE & fun ;b)


  • a plain natural white (or whatever uni-color you like) cotton bag   
    (You can find these easily on the internet, or at the  supermarket,. . . you know, the stuff the have under the checkout counter, where the plastic bags are,too. But maybe you need to search a little, till you find a supermarket that has NOT already prints of their logo on the bags. In Germany I found them in Kaufland stores.)
  • textile / laundry marker
    (There are two different types. Next to the usually sold pens, that come in various colors and are washable till 30-60°C, there are these laundry markes, which are mostly black and withstand up to 90°C. I recommend those for durability, but you need to know, that they're not as saturated in color as the others! )
  • ruler (optional)
  • iron (for fixing the marker)

  • On one side, I wanted a chevron pattern.
    . . .Simply started out with the first ziagzag lining.

    Next thing is to decide about the width between the lines.
    I made little dots for every edge point. (Think I measured it with the ruler. . .)

    . . .That way you can simply connect the dots afterwards and draw
    nice and straight lines without much effort.
