Cut one of your jeans' leg. . Skinny jeans works well if you want to make a little bag. If you want to make a not-so-little one, I recommended using bigger jeans.I used my Dad's in this case. . But well, it's up to your imagination to choose(◦'⌣'◦)
Adjust the to the length you desire. Just cut it. This is going to be your bag's length.
3.1 Reverse your jeans. . . 3.2 And sew the edge of it. I don't have a sewing-machine. So pardon my bizzare stitch. m(_ _)m
Reverse your jeans. The stitch should look like this (^o^)
5.1 Prepare a cardboard This is going to be the one to make shape for your bag. The one that you put on the bottom inside the bag. *Sorry, I don't know what it called by* . . 5.2 Cover it with the leftover of the jeans.
Put the cardboard inside. Now, it should be look like this.
Stitch the edge of upper side of your bag. Still, for making it looks like a real bag （‐＾▽＾‐）
The bag is too long for me. So I decided to fold it a little bit inside. No sew require. I use the glue gun. . . *Alright, I admitted. I was lazy. You should stitch it if you want to secure it right*
I use chains for the handle. You can use leather, ropes, whatever. Just let your imagination go wild. . Anyway, the eyelets are already there. . If you want to use eyelets, you can pierced your bag a little to put the eyelets, then secure it using a nail. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfx64F0Pq_0 . . Or simply use an eyelet pliers. *much easier* http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQryNGYxSWk&feature=fvw
Decorate it as you like! Put studs, laces, beads, whatever embellishments you can think with. . . ...and TA-DA! ヽ(^▽^)/ There's come your new bag.
