Make a Booty Bag out of a Pair of Jeans

Put the belt on and make the handles.

Make a Handle Lace the belt through the belt loops. Buckle it as though you would if you were wearing it. To make a handle, you can use strips from the jeans legs.

For a handbag handle, cut two strips that are 2” wide by 20” long. For a shoulder bag handle, use one strip of 2” wide by 40” long denim. Cut the strips to the desired length and then attach them to the bag by tying them onto the belt on either side.

You can customize your bag in a lot of ways. Let’s look at some style tips.
