Spend an afternoon or evening making your own tote bag using heat press techniques.

Spend an afternoon or evening making your own tote bag using heat press techniques. In this 2 hour session you will get an introduction to using a heat press from Sami, an experienced art teacher and illustrator. She will then show you how to use it to create your own one-of-a-kind tote bag design.

What you'll do

You will be shown different methods of creating a design for your tote bag and how to use a heat press to make it permanent. Methods include using htv vinyl, heat transfer dyes and heat set pastels. Each method gives a different effect- experiment with one or combine them to create something unique. You will then create your design, finish it with the heat press and take home a personalised handmade tote! Having an idea of a design before you come is useful but not essential.
