Turn your old jeans into a beautiful round handbag with this fun and functional upcycling project! This step-by-step tutorial shows you how to make a cute circular denim bag using just one adult-sized pair of jeans. Cut two 11-inch circles from the leg fabric and reuse the back pockets for added storage. For structure, apply fusible fleece to the denim, and fully line the bag for a clean, polished finish. Machine stitch most of the construction, then use an invisible hand stitch to close it up neatly. Add a snap, Velcro, or magnetic closure and keychain rings for a crossbody strap. Stylish, sturdy, and sustainable – this DIY denim purse is a total win!
