DIY Handbag (Purse)

step 4 - flowers final.jpg

Spring and summer are the seasons for fun and creativity. For this simple DIY I wanted to recreate a handbag from a high-end brand, so I started searching among the most recognized names until I found these bags

Handbags are a girl’s best friend and they can be used functionally to of course bring everything you need for the day/night with you, but equally important, they are a reflection of your personality so why not have a little fun an express your creative side?

Materials:

· A bag of your preference.

· Flower designs

· Thread, needle and scissors.

Before starting, place the flower designs/stickers on the bag and arrange them as you like. When you're finished, take a picture so you know how the flower design finished look is supposed to look on your bag.

Threading

Thread the needle without touching the lining of the bag.

Thread the Needle Through Flower Design

Then thread the needle through the flower and sew in this way all over the edge.

Repeat

And repeat! This simple procedure should be repeated with all of the flower designs that you would like to put on the bag.
