Look at all this stuff i got :D
A while back on one of my many flea-market trips, I came across this Pink Plastic Vintage SOMETHING..
I really dont know what it is.. All i know.. is when i saw it, I KNEW i could use it as a pretty Stencil one day!
And surely enough that one day is Today!
This is my First DYI craft I have made using Simply Spray!
I used Cloth Diapers, the pretty “stencil” and Paint it Black from Simply Spray
to make an adorable Bohemian inspired little girls purse!
You just Spray
take the stencil off carefully
and make whatever you want with it!
I love the way it turned out!
For the strap I just Braided strips of left over material from the same project.
I know my baby cant use this right now.. but i just love making her things she will be able to use and enjoy when she gets a bit older!
Want to Try Simply Spray!!

I love the purse and the Simple Spray looks like it is easy and fun!
sooo cute! thank you for sharing.
First I love your idea, so clever ! The plastic thingy is a doily circa late 50s/early 60's, usually fabric but hey it was the era of plastic … I had forgotten about these ! I'm circa 1950s :) Elaine in TN
woohoo! the mystery is solved!! :D
thank You so much Elaine!!
This looks so fun…I must try!
Fall hugs to you!
I see Elaine identified the plastic doily. LOL I remember them well. We had plastic lacey placemats too. Your DIY project turned out very nicely! Well done.
Congrats!! Thank you for the tip too!!
Wow! That is incredible crative and inventive, I never would guess that is a clothh diaper. The result of this project looks phenominal!
Wow, this bag turned out awesome. I won the same items, almost, and must find time to make something with it. I'v been seeing what others make and am loving the inspiration. I have a jean jacket that is begging to be decorated. I can't believe this cute little bag used to be a diaper, no one would guess if you didn't tell them. I love the handle you made.
That stencil worked perfectly! Thanks so much for participating in the exchange!
The little purse is adorable! Like others, I would never have guessed that the purse was made from a diaper.
I was going to tell you what "it" was in its former life, but I see that Elaine and Marilou beat me to it. My mother had a few of these, but I mostly remember them from my grandmothers' homes. The idea was that they didn't have to be washed like real doilies, but they were dust magnets! No matter how free of dust everything else was, these always collected dust. Some might say, well, at least they don't have to be ironed; but I always enjoyed ironing, even as a child, and I still do. It was a quiet task where I could just think and daydream and imagine.
Love the doily stencil! This project turned out perfectly. :-)
