Fun Craft Ideas for All Ages
A clutch purse is perfect for any occasion and the Pink Leda clutch by Ted Baker is adorable. But the price of a real Ted Baker bag is pretty steep, so how about a DIY project that lets you make your own handbag at a fraction of the cost?
I love this tutorial with Gracie Dzienny. She shows you how to make a no-sew clutch that rivals the designer bags you see in the stores. This one is so easy to make, you’ll want to make one in every color.
It’s always nice to have a little clutch to go with a special dress, but buying them can get expensive and I can never find the style I want. You know how it is right? You’re heading out to a wedding or party and you want the perfect shoes or bag to go with your dress, but you can never find what you want, when you want it. So here’s the solution, make a clutch purse yourself.
This box clutch purse from LifeAnnStyle is a fun way to make your own clutch in whatever color you choose. I think that this is a fun project for girls of all ages and it would even make a really cute gift to make for mum. A girl can never have enough purses after all!
What I like about this DIY idea is that you can recycle and upcycle things that you already have on hand. Use a little gift box for the frame of the purse and use some old pieces of cosmetic jewelry that you have around the house.
Make sure you check the kids toys for things to upcycle too. I know that my daughter has broken tiaras and play jewelry that we could use to make a cute purse. And if you don’t want to use this as a clutch, you could skip the handle and just use it as a treasure box to keep on your bureau.
