The old jeans lend themselves to a thousand creative reuses: in this article we have shown you how to transform them into bags, rugs, coatings for chairs and armchairs, and here we have given you ideas to embellish the table. Today, however, we focus on one project: DIY bags. Yes, because with an old pair of jeans you can create original, resistant and really beautiful bags. Take inspiration from the ideas we have selected and test yourself.
Jeans bag with scarf
Recover the upper part of the jeans, including pockets, and cuts the legs away. Turn up the head, then sew the sides and the bottom to close the base of the future bag. Once done, bring it back to the straight and insert a scarf instead of the belt, to tie with a nice bow. You just have to add the handles: you can make them by intertwining rowing rinsers in pendant with that used for the belt.
Checkered jeans bag
To make this nice square bag you need jeans of different colors.
Stripes jeans bag
Do you prefer the strips to the squares? No problem! You can make your bag by following the same procedure, but by cutting strips of jeans of different colors instead of squares. The result will be original and perfect for those who love striped patterns!
Patchwork bag
Alternatively, you can focus on the patchwork: an excellent idea to assemble different pieces of jeans, perhaps alternating with other fabrics or even crochet squares recovered from an old grandmother’s blanket.
In this case, just cut out the various elements and sew them together, following the order and combination you prefer. Add the handles … and your bag is ready to show off!
Jeans bag with lace bonds
Do you love vintage style? Then try to cut jeans strips and alternate them with lace bonds: the retro effect is guaranteed!
Jeans bag with embroidery
Finally, why not give your bag in recycled jeans a romantic touch? You can embroider on the flowers front or other reasons of your choice, perhaps making them emerge from the pocket for a delicate and original effect.
