Blue Jean Pocket Purses

These are very simple to make. I first cut the back pocket off of some old jeans. (You should be able to find some cheap at yardsales, junk stores, or if you have old jeans with holes in them etc.) I then used my cropadile to punch holes in ribbon and attach it to the inside with eyelets to make a handle. Next, just decorate the front. I used buttons on some, patches on same and decorative brads and gems on some as well. 


You can also use other pockets besides blue jeans.  For the ones below, I used some pockets off of some darker colored khaki pants.

Scrappy Doo, these are actually a lot easier than they look. If you decide to give some a try and have any questions let me know.
