AG Dog Food Bag

To go along with the dog food bowl I needed to make a bag as well. Started with a empty dog food bag (real size of course).


Then  cut out a little section at the top. It is about 3.5"x4.5". It just so happened that there was a little dog in the corner.

Next I took the sides apart and cleaned them both. You don't want any dog food residue in there.

Then the sides went back together. Zip them shut and remove the plastic zipper. Don't loose it as you will be putting it back on. Flip them so the right sides are together.


Then using embroidery floss to stitch down the three open sides. I also reinforced this with hot glue. Probably not necessary but little kids can be very hard on things.


Flip the bag right sides out again.


Slide on the zipper. Then put a little dab of hot glue on each end of the opening. This is to keep the plastic piece from sliding off.


 You could just keep the bag empty. I decided to make it look like there was dog food in it. I used a piece of packaging foam to be the filler. Really you could use a ton of different material. Anything that is laying around.


Using the same method as the dog food bowl add seed beads and glue.


Paint them brown if necessary. Then just glue it into the bag. That is it. Now "fill" your AG dog bowl.
