TRASHY AND TERRIFIC SCENTED SUMMER HANDBAG!!!

Today I created the easiest, most stylish, inexpensive, upcycled accessory! This is the ultimate craft project involving "using what you've got" to create a fun and fruity scented summer hand bag! Makes a wonderful last minute gift or gift box!

Here's ALL you need:

1 Juice Carton
1 Plasic Bag
1 Button
1 Pair of Adhesive Velcro Dots

Cut off top of juice carton. Clean and dry well with a rag. Bend carton diagonally and cut slits down both opposite corners about halfway down. Cut a curved concave line low along the front. Cut the back side into a large curved semi circle. Use a hole punch to make holes for handle and trim along flap edge. Weave strips of plastic bag through button and holes. Braid 3 strips of plastic bag for the handle. Tie knots in plastic bag strips on the inside of purse. Add adhesive velcro dots under button, and you're all done!

For a more ornate purse, you may add glitter, jewels, decoupage or a beaded handle! For more crafty tips "using what you've got" subscribe to this blog and check out my website www.modernsurrealist.com
