Juice Box Purses

Aren't they cute?
I had promised these to 3 cute little girls this past summer (after a glass or 2 of wine ;) ~
and this week-end I had to deliver!

After staring into space for an hour ~ here's what I did.

For each purse you need ~

- 5 Capri Sun containers - cut across the top and slice bottom of each one.

Wash and dry completely.

- about 16" of trim for the top

- about 20" of roping for handle

- matching thread

- you will be using a blanket stitch for the entire project EXCEPT when you are attaching trim.

1. Sew front to bottom

2. sides to front (for sides ~ have silver side showing ~ see picture)

3. back to one side ~ leaving other side unattached to side for now.

4. Insert handle ends to each side ~ centered ~ then sew top trim with a straight stitch all the way across the top.

5. sew unattached side to back

6. You will notice your bottom is too long. Cut to fit and sew to remaining 3 sides to bottom.

7. Fold sides in and ~ GUESS WHAT? YOUR DONE!

I think these would make cute little Easter baskets too!
