  1. Arrange your felt pieces on the tote bag, then use Fabric Fusion to glue each piece in place.
  2. Measure and cut strands of matching sequins to outline your Santa suit and gloves, red for the suit and black for the gloves. You can also coil a strand of red sequins and glue in place for the nose.
  3. Use a pencil to lightly sketch "HO HO" or your favorite Santa/Christmas word on the tote. Cut and glue sequin strands over the wording with Fabric Fusion.
