I love the idea to make something useful and beautiful like this bag. It’s pretty cool to see how jeans can be repurposed to a woman’s bag. This tutorial by DIY Crafts TV seems complicated, but it takes patience. I love the floral design on this bag and bucket totes are popular again. This is a great creation for those who have old jeans lying around and want to make something that’s unique. I am amazed how this bag turned out and it’s very inexpensive to make. Taking old jeans to make a bag from scratch may be hard to figure out, but such an innovative idea. It’s cool to see from start to finish how this purse started off as. I think this is a great summer or spring bag to carry with a simple casual outfit.

Overall, I think this is a great idea to upcycle a pair of jeans that you can no longer fit or will throw away. I always admire those who are able to recreate things from tutorials that are complicated and complex. One of the reasons why I love this specific project is the style of bag. Bucket tote bags are super trendy right now.
