Jeans Bag With All the Pockets


YOU NEED:
1 Old pair of jeans
Scissors
Glue gun (if gluing)
Glue sticks (if gluing)
Optional embellishments

 
Denim Jeans purses or booty bag patterns are all the rage right now with literally 100's of patterns on the market.
This bag has the option of being a sewing project or a quick no sew bag by using glue. Glue is a great alternative for a quick kids craft thought it may not be as durable.

Low-rise or small jeans make a smaller bag, bigger or high-waist jeans make for a roomier bag.
INSTRUCTIONS: 
Lay the jeans flat and cut off the legs.
Cut through the crotch, then straight across for an even edge.
Turn the jeans inside out and glue or sew the bottom closed leaving about 1/2 inch of fabric (or an even edge).
Turn inside the right way and check bottom for even edge.
Cut the inside seams from both the cut off pant legs and make handles from these. Glue or sew them on.
You can also glue or sew in a cheap bandanna as a lining & add embellishments to decorate the outside of the bag like colorful buttons or badges or even colored rhinestones. 
Velcro or magnetic closures can also be added.
For extra strength you should SEW this bag
