I Upcycled An Old Sweater Into A Gorgeous Handbag

ADVERTISEMENT

What’s great about upcycling is a feeling when you don’t just throw away an old item, you give it a new life and make something new from it. I had a sweater I loved which shrank very mysteriously (no way I grew bigger, no way!). I felt so sorry to throw it away… So I decided to remake it into a handbag. Coincidentally, I had a great pair of handles at home and I could start working straight away.

You can find a full tutorial with pics and description here.

    My name is Violeta and I am an editor here at Bored Panda. I love reading memes for a living. It’s obviously much more than that, but I appreciate the variety of topics, information, and pics I get to see every day and share with the world! Those funny memes really make my day too. Being born in the ’90s in post-Soviet Lithuania speaks more about me than I’d like to admit. I’m still learning about the world and myself, but I do love my friends, traveling, art, and my cat. My favorite fact to share about myself is that I used to hide meatballs in my friend’s pockets at lunch so I could go play outside. I wish all those meatballs could find their way back to me someday.
