I personally like to stick to the ” golden rule” that bag should always matches the shoes. My problem is that sometimes I buy too much shoes. Just because I like many different styles and colors. Accordingly, the number of bags is gradually growing. But I don`t think it is wise to buy a new bag for shoes that I don`t wear every day. That`s why I decided to make my own. And of course without sewing!
All you need:
> Old top
> Scissors
> Bag strap
> Old top
> Scissors
> Bag strap
1. Find suitable top. The fabric should be stretchy but not too much. I found mine in a thrift store.
2. Take the top and put it over you so you can decided how long you want your bag to be. With scissors cut the fabric on stripes to the chosen point.
3. Take two stripes, one from the front and one from the back side of the top and tie them together. repeat with all the stripes. If you want you can put a cardboard inside of the bag to be more steady.
4. Cut the bottom part of all the stripes and stretch the fabric to make nice fringes.
5. Hang the bag strap for the shoulder straps of the top. My strap`s hooks were to tiny so I put some chain on the shoulder straps and hang the hooks on the chain. And you are done!
