I have a recent fascination with upcycling and/or recycling items. I saw a particular pin where someone had made one of those shopping bags out of those juice pouches that look like this.
Well if you know me. I HAD to make a purse out of them.
I have this book
And I like this particular purse pattern because it uses a zipper and it has those cute little pockets on the end of the purse which work so great for your cell phone or little odds and ends.
The juice pouches are a little interesting to work with and I modified the pattern a little bit but overall I'm happy with my conversation piece handbag. I almost forgot. There are 35 juice pouches in this handbag. My family was collecting for a while!
Next blog post I'll show you the same purse pattern only made out of an upcycled mens suit jacket and vest.
