and this -
The jeans were an old pair of my husband's, the fabric I got in a bag of vintage 60's fabric at an estate sale, the button came from who know's where. The only modification I made was to use a small ponytail elastic instead of a ribbon, thought it would be more secure. I'm happy with how it turned out. And the price was right.
Looks like it has been over a year since I posted anything. Seems like I have had trouble getting something to say and pictures at the same time. Reading that last post reminded me of some things I intended to do in the bedroom, that still haven't been done. I fell off the challenge that Heather had, and about the only thing that has been accomplished around the house has been to paint the master bath. I used the same paint as the turquoise wall in the bedroom. This just got finished last week, and I need to buy a new towel bar and TP holder. Oh, and we cleaned out the storage room in the basement. Had a small water leak that was really a blessing, as it forced us to totally empty the room. While it was empty, we painted, rearranged the shelves, got rid of a LOT of stuff, found a few long lost items, and created a space that actually functions. I can find what I need, add stuff, and not risk my life opening the door. Guess I need to figure out my next room to attack.
I love this little purse out of the jeans and vintage fabric. Wish I could find some vintage fabric. I've been looking at antique shops but haven't had any luck. I have a pile of old jeans too to sew into other things.
