Upcycled bags

These are the denim totes I upcycled for my two nieces in Singapore. Can't tell you the exact size (I forgot to take down the measurements before giving them away) suffice to say, it's big enough for major shopping sprees! **GRIN**

This is the other, same size but the design is different. I did not pad up the straps here but couldn't resist using the same giant buttons I stashed up from my Malacca trip.

Just in time

A bag I whipped up as a gift for a friend. Truly, one of its kind as it has a very unique pocket for the front. It's studded with rhinestones... and I used one of my big wooden buttons for the loopy closure.

The back of the bag also has a pocket. I have also mixed in one or two scraps of floral cotton prints to "sweeten" up the look :-)

The inside of the bag is lined with this red blue and white checks. I didn't have time to put in any inside pockets so hopefully, my friend uses a bag organizer.

This bag was made much earlier. It now comes in very handy as an extra gift I'll be taking along to a family reunion this weekend. It's going to the hostess.

The other side..... 


I wish I have more bags made up so that every gal can have one. Unfortunately, I only have two to take to the family gathering. Sorry ladies... :-(
