in a bargain bin last week on one of our vintage hunts.
I got the idea to revamp it into a cool clutch bag with just
a few easy steps...
Before. In need of a good clean.
Underside.
Start of by cleaning it with a brush and some soap.
Wicker is much easier to work with while wet so I
started to cut the stand off on the underside.
In progress...
Put an elastic band on the center edge and tie.
I always burn the ends of the elastic so the black
thread won't fray.
Add a paper fastener. This is the outside.
This is the inside.
Clasp finished and so is the project.
Let's disco!
Can be used with an Hawaiian or nautical outfit.
What a delightful little project, that clutch is just right for summer parties! I'll have to keep an eye out for old wicker when hunting the jumble!
ReplyDeleteThat is really cute and a cool ide to make it a clutch.I would never thought about it.I would but it i the bathroom for my little soaps or something like that.A clutch is a better use for it.Great job.
