Ellie is happily following along with her older sister's obsession, even if I do think that gymnastics probably suits her personality a whole lot better than ballet. Ellie realized this past week though that she STILL didn't have a bag to keep her ballet shoes in (while Lu's had one for YEARS). So yeah, I guess it was about time for me to throw a bag together for Ellie.
My little ballerina requested herself and a picture of a dancing dog on her ballet bag. So I sketched some out using a fabric marker and added some tulle for a skirt. Leave it to my animal loving Ellie to want a dancing dog on her bag! So silly! I just sewed around the edges of my bag fabric to secure it, and then it was as simple as making a draw string bag. 
What I loved best about this bag though was that I literally threw it together in less than an hour...just in time for dance class.
Keep reading below for the complete how to!



Finally I used a safety pin to run the cording through the passage way that I created at the beginning.
Super easy, right?
Hope you all are having a great week! It's Spring Break here, and I'm looking forward to spending some quality time with my girls.
XOXO,
Jill
