They were amazed when they learned that it was all hand-made.
She cut the belt part of her old jeans and turned them into a chic tote bag.
Materials:
Directions:
Step 1:
Cut the belt part of your old jeans using fabric scissors.
For the tote bag, youll need at least five jeans belts.
Step 2:
Dissolve the belts.
Repeat these steps until all the belts are dissolved.
Step 3:
After you remove all the belts, use an electric iron to straighten the belts.
You will now have to strengthen the belts with non-woven or dublerin to accurately sew the bag.
Use the electric iron to glue the dublerin to the belts.
Cut the belts to a length of 40 centimeters.
It will serve as the width of the bag.
Step 4:
In random order, lay out the belts into two piles.
Lay out an equal number of belts because the two piles will be the two sides of the belt.
So iron the part where you sew it so it will straighten and look more natural.
Step 5:Fold the sides of the bag in half and cut it into a semicircle.
Do this on both sides of the bag.
The fabric will act as the inside part of your bag.
it’s possible for you to also add zippers or sticker patches to customize your bag.
it’s possible for you to also add shorter or longer handles depending on how you like it.
And that is how you make a cute tote bag from your old jeans.
