Practical Denim
May 13th, 2008 by SimoneThis post features the remains of my unloved jeans that I cut up for this bag. I’ve been toying with the idea of a recycled denim bag, but was trying to come up with a variation on the theme. So here it is, a reversible bag.
You can either display the jeans side and make a recycled fashion statement, or you can be more low key about your lifestyle, turn the whole thing inside out and display a cool lining.
The jeans pockets become practical places to stash away your phone, mp3 player, glass baby bottles, in other words, all those treasures you find in your jeans pockets every day. So before you send your denims off to the Goodwill store, take a good luck at them and consider what kind of reincarnation you could create with a sharp pair of shears.

The problem, for me, with bags made of jeans is that mine would be a duffel bag!!
Maybe I’ll make a cute, tiny purse out of my kids’ jeans! Hahaha…

Pure genius!! I just love the reversibility and the fact that you then have interior pockets!! Brilliance.

I have some jeans a friend of mine gave me and I had planned on making bags from them. Thanks for showing me some ways I could do them.

Is there a tut for this bag? I love it but am somewhat new to making bags so need directions! Thanks.
