Jessie Jane's DIY Leather Clutches
Clutch onto Jessie Jane's DIY leather purse craft. In a matter of minutes and for under $10, you can fold and glue a swatch of leather into a stylish evening bag. Make a fashion statement the next time you go out with this no-sew clutch. Plus, you can customize it with creative embellishments such as sequins or feathers.
Instructions:
1. Buy any size fabric or leather (depending on how big you want your clutch to be). Jessie used the standard 8 ½ " x 11" leather sheet they sell at the craft store in the leather aisle. These sheets come in light brown, dark brown, and black at Michaels.
2. Fold your leather sheet in half so it's now 8 ½ " x 5 ½ " (with the suede part on the inside) and hot glue the sides together. Let dry. 3. Now place your zipper in the top portion of the clutch and glue the canvas sides to the inside of the clutch. Carefully do each side and then let dry. 4. Embellish or paint if you wish.
