We fell in love with this Lulu Guinness Backpack so we decided to give our own black backpack a make-over in a similar fashion. We carefully removed the label from the backpack and then embellished the backpack with American Crafts Glitter Tape. We used the black and the darkest red colors and applied fabric glue to make it permanent. Before applying we touched up the edges of the tape with a permanent marker to cover up where the white tape base showed thru and... voilà! Kisses!
Quick tip when using fabric glue... we have switched to Beacon Fabri-Tac because it is a tacky glue that hold things in place much more easily and dries very quickly, it behaves similar to glue from a glue gun.
