How to Bling Out a backpack

Hello There,

Rebecca is officially a ninth grader...and she wanted to start the year off with an awesome one of a kind backback...sooooo....we went shopping....

Well, we wound up at Sports Authority and we had in hand a Under Armour backpack but when we went to look at socks, she found this backpack....it's pink inside and she said "Wow, it's like
a magical world of awesomeness...."  So we got the "magical world of awesomeness "backpack...I'm a firm believer in buying my kids school supplies that will make it more fun for them and my girls always enjoy the process of school supply shopping, buying a new backpack and a cool lunchbox....


Then we went to Hobby Lobby and Michaels and this is what we found for "BLING"...

These embroidery letters are for spelling out her name on the backpack...

The blue rhinestones are for blinging out the pawprint...blue is the main school color...and the softball patch is well, it's Rebecca....nuff said...

These ribbons are for decorating the handle...and the larger one is for a bow...she's into bow's right now...

She has been playing volleyball since the 5th grade and is now on the Jr. Varsity team and occasionally plays in some of the Varsity games...this is going on her gym bag...

This patch is going on her gym bag....

She is on the Varsity and Jr. Varsity volleyball teams...

This pawprint is going on her gymbag as well...
Now for the assembly process...

We used the letters to put her name on the backpack...can you tell she is pleased...

Now she is carefully tying off the ribbons on her handle....

The ribbons were very tedious...but the effect is awesome....



Now the backpack is officially "Blinged out for High School" and she is pleased...

Now she is ready for the first day of High School...
I always take a picture of the first day of school...

Seriously....this is the picture she wanted....and she did a great job...don't you think...

Backpack feels great and she loves her gym bag too....and I just love my girl...

Blessings 
Sherry
