Jeans Resurrection: A Small Clutch Bag

What a cute little clutch!  Click here for the basic pattern and then let your imagination run wild with the embellishments.

Since I sell vintage jewelry and have an overabundance at my fingertips, I love using bits and pieces of old jewelry that I can't sell to embellish these DIY sewing projects.  I'll be posting some new projects as soon as I get back into my sewing room.  

Use what YOU have an abundance of for the embellishments . . . if you are a fabric hoarder, another favorite for me are fabric appliques.  No need to go out and buy more stuff to make this little clutch a special little treasure!

The pattern and inspiration comes from Alida, whose blog is on hiatus, but has lots of great ideas, patterns and inspiration.  Her personal story is touching . . . check out her blog, Alida Makes.

DIY Clutch Purse Inspiration and Tutorials

Do you love clutch purses?  I've made all types of clutch purses in different sizes, shapes, colors to organize stuff in my craft area and also to keep my massive makeup collection under control.

I ran into the SweetyHigh blog while surfing the internet and found that Shawna must love clutch purses as much as I do.  She wrote a blog post on clutch purse tutorials she has found through her travels on the internet.

DIY The Conversation Bag

Love this bag . . . the design itself, not the fabric design.  Making this bag solid would be much easier anyway.
