Recycled Jeans Purses

Cute and funky purses I made, and handpainted.

A few examples of purses I've made recently. Each piece is one of a kind, because they're made from pairs of blue jeans that were either donated to me, or my own. I only cut up jeans that are ripped beyond wearability. As in, the butt or the crotch. I also use leg pieces from jeans that have been cut off to make shorts. The 3rd one I made for Sugarlishes, for the Rockabilly swap, and it's inspired by vintage style tattoos + the quote is from "La Vie Boheme" from RENT.
