Restyled Pencil Pouch

Hey there! I saw these photos on my iPad the other day and thought, "I haven't shared those on my blog yet!" So, I'm going to show you them now! 

The other week I bought a cute little pencil pouch at Michael's. It was a plain canvas bag printed with a bicycle. I thought it was SO cute. I knew I had to buy it and paint it. :) So I did just that! Here is the before photo:


And here's what it looked like after I got finished with it:


I painted it with plain acrylic paints, and then I used some Glitter Glam from Tattered Angels to seal it. It gave it a shiny, finished look. Plus it was glittery. So two good things in one! :)

I love doing artsy things like this. I was debating over whether to keep it or send it along to a friend. I ended up deciding to snail mail it to my friend MarLeah just because. I love sending "just because" mail. ;)
