DIY How to Make a Tote Bag / Purse from a DishTowel

Ciao lovelies! Today's post is a DIY- how to make a tote bag/purse from a dish towel! 

This is a super easy transformation! 

All you need is:

-A dishtowel, preferably one made of a heavier material. This one is from Target, and it's a canvas-like material. 

-Sewing machine or needle and thread

-Ribbon

-OPTIONAL: hot glue

 HOW TO:

Start by folding the towel in half like in step 2. There should be a fold along the bottom. Sew up the two sides, leaving the top open to form the basic pouch shape.

Next, cut two ribbons to the sizes you want for handles/straps. Sew them onto the inside of the bag, making sure you don't accidentally sew the top of the bag shut.

Turn inside out. Make a bow out of ribbon and sew or glue it to the front.

And you're done!

There you have it! 

An easy bag to make on a rainy spring day that's perfect to wear out on a sunny one!
