Dialogue: 0,0:00:09.26,0:00:14.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Today's suggestion was sent in by Vatoyyo, who sent me a link to this banana backpack. Dialogue: 0,0:00:14.00,0:00:22.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, I found this same item all over different store envy shops, so it does seem to be a cheap, mass-produced design and it's also something you could totally make for yourself. Dialogue: 0,0:00:22.84,0:00:25.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So I've been keeping an eye out for plain backpacks, Dialogue: 0,0:00:25.44,0:00:28.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,at market stalls and thrift stores and I found this one the other day. Dialogue: 0,0:00:28.70,0:00:31.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I thought it looked pretty similar so now I'm going to begin. Dialogue: 0,0:00:31.54,0:00:35.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The first thing I did was to work out a good banana design on a piece of paper Dialogue: 0,0:00:35.00,0:00:37.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,before trying it out on the bag itself. Dialogue: 0,0:00:37.00,0:00:41.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Next I mixed up some yellow and white acrylic paint to make a good banana colour Dialogue: 0,0:00:41.60,0:00:45.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and added some fabric medium to help the design stay permanent on the fabric. Dialogue: 0,0:00:45.30,0:00:51.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This isn't really needed if you're not going to be washing your backpack much but seeing as I had some lying around, I thought 'why not?' Dialogue: 0,0:00:51.02,0:00:56.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then I laid the backpack flat and put a plastic bag inside to stop the paint from transferring through to the opposite side. Dialogue: 0,0:00:56.94,0:00:59.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then I started painting banana shapes on to my bag. Dialogue: 0,0:00:59.60,0:01:04.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The first thing I did was to cover up this quite prominent stain with this strategically placed banana. Dialogue: 0,0:01:04.12,0:01:06.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then I continued painting on bananas in a random fashion. Dialogue: 0,0:01:07.10,0:01:14.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, you can wait for your paint to dry naturally or you can get impatient like me and speed up the process with a hairdryer. Dialogue: 0,0:01:16.12,0:01:20.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Once I had covered my backpack with bananas , I ironed over them to set them into the fabric. Dialogue: 0,0:01:20.66,0:01:26.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then, using a permanent black marker, I drew a couple of simple lines over the top of the paint to finish off the design Dialogue: 0,0:01:26.52,0:01:28.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I repeated this for all of the bananas. Dialogue: 0,0:01:49.30,0:01:53.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Way too easy to make and I've given a new life to this old, stained backpack. Dialogue: 0,0:01:53.02,0:01:55.42,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If you have any suggestions for things for me to try out Dialogue: 0,0:01:55.42,0:01:57.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,then leave a comment below.
