How to paint your tote
- Start with a clean, dry bag so the paint has nothing to sit on but canvas.
- Mix Angelus Acrylic Leather Paint with Angelus 2-Soft Fabric Medium so the paint stays flexible when the bag folds.
- Paint in thin layers and let each one dry, since thick coats are more likely to crack.
- Heat set the finished design to help it hold up to everyday use.
Questions we hear a lot
Can you use acrylic paint on tote bags?
Yes, and for tote bag painting we suggest Angelus Acrylic Leather Paint mixed with 2-Soft so the design bends with the fabric.
Which side can I customize?
The back panel is plain canvas, so it's the easiest side for painting on canvas without working around the logo.
Can I paint over the embroidered logo?
We'd keep paint off the embroidery and work on the open canvas around it instead.
Care
Turn the bag inside out and wash it in cold water with like colors and a mild detergent, or hand wash it. Skip the bleach and the iron, and lay it flat to air dry, since cotton canvas can shrink in a hot dryer. Once you've painted it, we'd stick to spot cleaning to keep your design looking its best.
