Step-by-step

Step 1
Before you start, you first need to wash, dry and iron your bag to make sure the marker ink adheres properly to the fabric. Next, print out our template. You might also want to create a template for your chosen name. You can then simply trace the design onto your bag using the laundry marker.

Step 2
Place your template on top of your piece of cardboard and slide them both inside your bag, so that the ink doesn’t bleed through to the other side of the bag.

Step 3
Add your chosen name to the top half of the bag using the edding laundry marker. As mentioned in step 1, you may find it really helpful to create your own template for this.

Step 4
Transfer the slogan on the template onto your fabric. And that’s it – your design is finished! Your sports bag will be ready to use right away, since there’s no need to fix the ink using an iron.
