Do you have an old pair of jeans? Don’t throw them away but reuse them to realize a fashionable and eco-friendly bag. Let’s see what you need and some easy step to do that:
You need:
- One old pair of jeans (size doesn’t matter)
- One old belt (minimum length 80 cm)
- 50 cm of printed fabric, 110 cm or 140 cm wide (heavy cotton or fake fur)
- Assorted thread, pencil, ruler, scissors and pins
First step: cut off the legs of the jeans at crotch level, then unpick the crotch seam.
Second step: cutting the printed fabric, then fold in half in parallel with the longer side of the fabric. Sew up the sides of the fabric by turning it inside-out and then stitching 1.5cm from the edges and create two straight seams across the top of the fabric.
