Ribbon Decorated Spring Tote with Gwen Studios

 

Hi Everyone! Happy Spring!

 I hope you'll enjoy these oh-so easy ribbon decorated totes as much as I did in making them!
The best part is that they can be used as a gift bag, a small purse or even a Easter basket!

* As a design team member for Gwen Studios,
I am provided with product to work with each month.

To get started, you will need the following:

• GWEN STUDIOS Favor Pack- Pastel assortment of 3/8" grosgrain ribbon 
  (found in store and at Walmart.com)
• Any size straw tote/purse 
• A blunt tapestry needle
• Scissors, thread and sewing needle

1. Thread one end of the ribbon onto the blunt needle. 
2. From the inside of the tote, push the needle through a opening. 
3. Secure the ribbon tail with thread and the sewing needle to the inside of the tote. 
4. Pull the ribbon up then back through the openings as shown. 
5. The more holes you skip, the neater the ribbon will lay flat. 
6. Alternate between your favorite ribbon colors. 
7. Decorate just one side or all over the the tote. 
8. Secure the ends of each color ribbon on the inside of the tote, again with the sewing needle and thread. 

Finish your tote with a pretty ribbon or other decoration.
