Crafting Your Disney Snow White Poison Apple Purse
Before diving into the crafting process, let’s gather all the essential supplies you’ll need for this enchanting poison apple purse project:
- Cheap Red Crossbody Bag: Start with an inexpensive red crossbody bag that looks like an apple, which you can easily find on Amazon or at a local store. This will serve as the base for your Poison Apple purse.
- Hot Glue Gun and Glue Sticks: Hot glue will be your trusty companion throughout this DIY journey. Make sure you have a reliable glue gun and plenty of glue sticks on hand.
- Neon Green Paint: To achieve that iconic Poison Apple glow, you’ll need neon green paint. Spray paint works the best for this project.
- Paint Brush: A simple paintbrush will help you apply the paint with precision and create the desired effect.
- Disposable Plate or Bowl: You’ll need something to hold your paint. Make sure it’s disposable. A paper or plastic bowl will work fine.
- Optional: Glow in the Dark Paint: For an extra touch of magic, consider using glow-in-the-dark paint to make your purse truly enchanting at night.
Now that you have all your supplies ready, let’s get started on crafting your very own Disney Snow White Poison Apple Purse.
Step-by-Step Crafting Guide
Step 1: Prepare Your Bag
Begin by examining your crossbody bag. Ensure it’s clean and free from any dust or dirt. Lay it flat and hot glue the leaves away from the front, so you have easy access to the entire surface.
Step 2: Apple Design
Now, it’s time to lightly sketch out the Poison Apple design on your bag. Use a pencil, chalk or red sharpie. If you’re confident in your artistic skills, you can skip the sketching and begin creating the poison apple design onto the bag with hot glue. Take your time with this step to ensure your apple looks just like the one from the Disney classic.
What if I mess up the design? If you mess up, wait for the hot glue to dry, then carefully peel it off of the bag, so you can try again. With the Amazon bag I used and recommend, it should peel off easy for you!
Step 3: Paint the Poison Apple
After the hot glue has dried and your design is in place, you’re ready to paint! Take a paper plate or bowl outside and spray your neon green paint onto it. Then carefully paint over the glue on the Poison Apple bag.
Step 4: Optional Glow
For those seeking an extra dash of Disney magic, now’s the perfect time to apply the glow-in-the-dark paint. This may require a couple of coats to achieve a vibrant, glowing effect. Allow each coat to dry before applying the next.
Your Disney Snow White Poison Apple Purse is now ready to accompany you on your next adventure.
Crafting your very own Disney Snow White Poison Apple Purse is not only a delightful DIY project but also a fantastic way to showcase your love for Disney magic.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I use a different colored bag for this DIY project?
Absolutely! While a red bag gives a more authentic Poison Apple look, you can let your creativity shine by choosing a different color that appeals to you.
Currently Loungefly is promoting a black and white poison apple bag that starts at $100. You could use a black bag with white paint for the same look for less!
How long does it take for the paint to dry?
The drying time for the paint may vary depending on factors like humidity and the type of paint used. Generally, spray paint dries relatively quickly, usually within 30 minutes to an hour per coat.
Can I use a different type of paint for the glow-in-the-dark effect?
While neon green paint is recommended for the Poison Apple’s base coat, you can experiment with different types of glow-in-the-dark paint to achieve the desired effect. Just make sure it adheres well to the bag material.
How can I protect the paint on my DIY purse?
To protect the paint and ensure it lasts, you can apply a clear acrylic sealer or fabric protector over the design once it’s completely dry. This will help protect your masterpiece from wear and tear.
Gather your craft supplies, unleash your inner artist, and embark on this enchanting DIY journey. Your Disney Snow White Poison Apple Purse awaits, ready to add a touch of Disney charm to your next adventure!
