DIY Sequin Tote


When I saw the idea for a DIY sequin tote on Anna's blog, I knew I had to make it!  I used sequin trim and a canvas tote from Hobby Lobby, and I attached my sequin trim in horizontal stripes with hem tape (above tote).  Then I saw this tote and wanted to make own version.  Using more of the same supplies, I ran the sequin trim around the handles and down the length of the tote on both sides (below tote).  Such a quick and easy DIY, and I always need another bag!

  6. Oh em geee. You did this yourself?! I don't need any more tote bags, but when I wear all of the others out, I'm definitely going to be making this, but in PINK sequins. And maybe on a green bag? Overly preppy much? I think not ;) Happy Thursday, Sherri!

  12. Cute! I need to throw out my market totes as they are getting kind of tattered and gross. Maybe I should make some new sparkly ones to take to the grocery store!

  15. @Sandy - hem tape is a double-sided tape that you can use on fabrics. I bought mine in the sewing supplies section at Michael's. I think any craft or sewing store would have it!
