Answer
How to Decorate a Backpack
At our house, we get out the fabric paints, fabric glue, sequins and other treasures from the craft box and make our very own personalized backpack. How do we make a school backpack transform from drab to fab?
Dimensional paints are 3D acrylic paints that are applied similarly to bottled glue, but come in an incredible rainbow of colors. A 6 pack of Scribbles dimensional fabric paint are priced around $5 for 6 one ounce bottles that will last through hundreds of art projects.
We refer to craft magazines and kids craft books to find designs that we like, and use them as a reference to create our own unique designs. We use a pencil to lightly sketch in the design and then trace the pencil lines with the paint. For girls, mod daisies, butterflies, fish, and hearts are popular shapes. Boys might like stars, lightening bolts, robots, fish, dinosaurs or lego shapes.
Sequins are shiny pieces of colored metal that glitter when the light hits their surface. Some sequins use a special tool to punch the sequin through the fabric and attach a backing. Other types of glitter can be glued on with fabric glue.
Sequins can be glued in a random pattern or applied in concentric circles, star bursts or other patterns. Sequins are sold in craft stores in a wide range of prices for every budget.
Zipper pulls can also change the look of a backpack. We attach plastic charms and beads to a couple of large fishing swivels, which are then clipped to the zipper tab. Of course, a plain old key chain will also work which has been decorated with strands of ribbon or a boon doogle.
Buttons are also a fun way to decorate a backpack. We're not talking about the buttons on a coat, but the round ones that pin to your shirt and say things like "Kiss me, I'm Irish." Dollar stores are full of inexpensive buttons and a collection of ten buttons or more

Hi, I understand your problem. My kids experience the same problem. So far I've found two brands that offer the strap across the top between the shoulder straps which keeps the backpack high on your shoulders so that it distributes the weight better. I found some really nice ones at Kohl's by Tony Hawk (currently on sale). They don't have any good colors for women. Look at the Chico, Corktree, Hackberry & Shadblow styles. Zoom in on the top of the shoulder straps and you will see the extra strap across the top. That's what you want. Also, the High Sierra Loop Backpack has the same features. I've found them at JC Penney (also on sale). When you click on the JC Penney link below scroll down until you see the High Sierra Loop backpack. You don't want the High Sierra Fatboy model. It's the Loop model that you want. When the link comes up the Loop backpack is shown in pink. Just click on it and it will show you the other colors offered. You can even view the backpack from the back and get a good view of the strap across the shoulder straps. If there aren't any Kohl's or JC Penney's. Do a search on the internet. I think that Land's End might even carry a version of these packs. Hope this helps. Good Luck!
