How to Quickly Make a Handbag
So you're minutes away from heading out the door for a birthday party, dinner with your
girlfriends
, afternoon wedding or a day of shopping by yourself, but you realize you have no handbag to match your super stylish outfit. In under 5 minutes you can make a handbag to accent your clothing.
Step
1
Round up a few simple supplies. Find a bandana or linen napkin in a design or color that matches your outfit. Square-shaped fabrics work best, but rectangular ones also work. Also grab two bangle-style bracelets.
Step
2
Lay your material of choice flat on a table. Gather two corners on the same side. (If you count the corners, beginning with the top left as number 1, gather corners 2 and 3 first). Hold them together and make "bunny ears." Wrap the bunny ears around one bracelet and then tie the ears together.
Step
3
Repeat the gathering process with corners 4 and 1.
Step
4
Clasp the bracelets together, using them as your handbag handles.
Step
5
Fluff out the pouch with your fist in order to give it a fuller appearance. This also gives you room to place your lipstick, money and cell phone inside. The bag is sturdy, but cramming too much inside may cause the bunny ears to come untied.
Step
6
Swap out fabrics to mix-and-match with your future outfits.
