Keeping up with the Reduce, Reuse & Recycle programs, I purchased about 2 dozen canvas bag which we use for gift bags, markers and even storing coupons.  As a gift bag, I needed to jazz it up a bit with spray paint.  Figuring I had nothing to  loose - I went for it.  Taping off sections of the bag and spray painting in layers was pretty easy - the paint dried really fast on the canvas allowing me to finish the bag quickly.  Using leftover cans of Painter's Touch 2X I was still able to add a splash of color - love the Gloss Real Orange and Aubergine!   Check how great this Creative Canvas Bag turned out!

The one thing I did learn, you have to be sure that the tape is tight against the canvas when you are spray painting and that you spray from at least 10 inches away.  I let the kids pick the colors for this bag and used it as a gift bag for a birthday party filled a fun gift and topped off with orange tissue paper.  The process itself was easy and I think next time I will line up a dozen or so bags and complete them at once.  I was also thinking of personalizing each Birthday bag with number stencils and spray painting on the inside of the numbers showing their birth dates.
