My personalized #bemakeful embellished tote

I recently received a groovy little surprise tote bag in the post from Canadian lifestyle specialty channel Makeful with the challenge to transform it into a personalized piece of awesomeness.

I think I succeeded:

Here’s what I did:

I searched through my stash and grabbed a vintage hankie, felt, a leftover pocket and the vintage sewing themed charms that I’d been saving for ages. Then simply chopped out a mini me from the felt bits and stitched and embroidered it all together!

I love those little charms – it really pays to sort through and keep a well organized stash!
