Backpack Recon

Redesign an old backpack

So I got a free backpack from a tour I was going on, and I didn't like the way it look (slash didn't want to obnoxiously advertise the tour company). Using some old acrylic paint and nail polish, I redid it.

You Will Need (2 things)

  • 1 Backpack Bag
  • some Acrylic Paint

Steps (2 steps, 25 minutes)

  1. 1

    When you have an idea of what you want it to look like, remove first what you don't like. I removed the weird drawstring cord going across it, and the strings on the zippers.

  2. 2

    Then using paint (or really, whatever supplies you like) get to work on your backpack. I painted a checker pattern using blue and black paint, so it turned out like this. Not exactly professional, I know, but I like it. :D
