How about making a pretty petal backpack to brighten up your child's back-to-school routine? Jessica at Happy Together (DSC hearts her!!) made this adorable little backpack with two items she picked up at the dollar store. So cute! She has two different methods for making them, so be sure to check the tutorial out (found at UCreate, a great blog with lots of inspirational ideas). [click here for the tutorial]

Project Estimate:

Small backpack, $1
Faux rose petals, $1
Hot glue gun, on hand

Total: $2

I just found your website yesterday and I got a list of crafts I want to do already! I loved this idea! So today I went to my Dollar Tree store and got the backpack and petals. I made it and it’s so cute! It’s for my niece that lives 5 hours away and is coming tomorrow! She’ll love it!
