How to renew an old bag
Do you have a decidedly dated clutch that no longer convinces you? Renew it by applying colored beads on top of it with a special glue. You will see what a masterpiece!
Or recycle old CDs, cut them into small pieces and stick them on the clutch until it is completely covered.
If the bag is intact and you still like it, but you would like to renew it a little, why not add some colored pom poms? You can DIY them yourself.
Are you good with embroidery? Renew the old bag with a floral design. It will make it unique and very original.
Notebooks and envelopes with old bags
If you get along with needle and thread, you can recycle the old cloth bag to make a handy notebook or DIY envelope.
All you need to do is cut out 30cm of double-height fabric, 50cm of fabric stabilizer, 1 x 20cm zipper and 1 piece of 3 × 2cm velcro. Then you just have to proceed by following the instructions of the manufacturing tutorial.
Patches for clothes with old bag
With the fabric of the old bags you can make DIY patches, which can be used to embellish clothes and accessories, but also to plug any tears and stains.
- Just cut out a piece of fabric and iron a piece of interlining on the back.
- At this point, draw on the fabric a shape of your favorite shape, circular, square, rhombus, animal-shaped or more.
- Cut out the template and apply it with a needle and thread to a t-shirt, a pair of jeans or wherever you like.
