I love having tote bags easily on hand to use.  I seem to never have too many.  They are great for bringing coloring books out to restaurants for my kids, putting sunscreen in while at the pool, loading up with tasty treats at a picnic and so much more!

A few years ago I made a gorgeous Pom Pom Patterned Tote and I just loved how it turned out.  I decided this summer and Fourth of July season to try making another slightly smaller version.

Start by deciding on how many rows of pom poms you will be using and then draw a light line with a ruler and pencil for each row.

Next, using as similar acrylic paint as you can find – paint in each color.  This helps when you get your felted balls onto the bag to not see the canvas color underneath.

After the paint is dry, you can start adhering the felted balls onto your colored lines.  I found a hot glue gun the easiest thing to use.
