Purse handles
June 12th 2009 19:22
I got some purse handles at the craft store the other day. They were on sale. They are clear plastic ones.
So, I found a little cute hand bag that I had got at the dollar tree (for a little craft tote) and I cut the existing handles off.
I left about 2 inches on each strap (there were 4) and just hand sewed my new handles on with that.
Its so much cuter now, and the handles I added on are so much stronger.
So, I semi-made an original little craft tote for under 5 dollars.
I know artists can never find enough bags and totes to carry all of their supplies so, here is an idea for a somewhat original tote idea.
Now, I don't knit, but it would make an excellent tiny tote for someone who has to sit in the waiting room somewhere. For smaller projects, like hats or whatever.
I'm using it for my sketching supplies, like pads, pencils, and colored pencils.
I also carry my camera, media cards, and converter in there so if I need prints I can just pop in any store and order what I need.
I'm so excited about this because I'm really tired of buying totes and things for my supplies, and I have so many hobbies and I'm constantly needing carry alls. And its getting expensive.
I'd much rather spend the extra money I save on making these on more hobby supplies.
