@soulicous1 I'm a straightforward kind of girl. Hate watching videos and it takes 2 minutes to get to the point of how to make the thing!

[BaroqueRococo]

Wow! I am doing keeping a list of how to re-use objects that I don't need and I'm pretty sure no one thought of this! Thanks!

[ErinBranham7381]

@BaroqueRococo You're welcome! Have fun making it when the time comes!

[RoseMMBlack]

Mine can out a *little* squint at the bottem - such have used pins but didn't - damn. But I don't think My sister like notice - its her X-mas present once I jazz it up a little - she's ten, she'll think it rocks anyhow!

[ErinBranham7381]

@RoseMMBlack I'm sure she loved it!

[purplepanda0040]

youre a good photographer!!!

[RukiaHanazono]

This is better than all the other jean making bag videos, mainly because you don't have to talk, and because the music, the photography, and the text makes everything look sophisticated. I can't believe you hated home ec. you're so good at this. ahahah.

[mogaraafulalaa]

Coo and easy to make!

[tweety9102]

its harder to cut than you think. I messed up cutting it and it didnt come out straight, so i tried fixing it and i ended up cutting open a pocket. :S great, im not making a purse unless i can use another pair of jeans.

[ErinBranham7381]

@tweety9102 It sure is! I drew a line on the jeans so I could at least have something to follow. Also, a pair sharp scissors made for cutting material is really beneficial. I borrowed my mother's scissors.

[tweety9102]

id suggest that whoever is making this use a smalelr size jeans, like 8 ot something.

[ErinBranham7381]

@tweety9102 You betcha - unless you have a ginormous butt like me and don't wear a size 8 - ha ha! I'm sure you could get some uber cheap at the thrift store. I actually like the larger size because it fits my lap top.

[tweety9102]

@ErinBranham7381 Thing is, I had some old jeans that happened to be size 8. ^__^ I cut it, and fixed the pockets. Now all I gotta do is add a lining (if theres a shirt i can use) , sew the bottom up, and add like a snap then the handels! :) My sewing is KINDA straight edleast. :S

[JANEEDISTURBED]

I like this video. Not just because of the purse making from old jeans, but because it felt happy. The music and the way you put it all together. I like it. Now that last frame with your finished purse hanging from the door, and your reflection in the mirror is a really good photography shot.

[ErinBranham7381]

@JANEEDISTURBED Awwww...thanks! You made my day!

[saima331]

wow i love handbags and i found a way to cure my depression.......by making handbags.thanx

[ErinBranham7381]

@saima331 You're welcome! As someone who suffered through depression for almost 2 years, take each day at a time...and don't be afraid to talk to a counselor and see a doctor for anti-depressants. What I learned was there's nothing wrong with me, but there is something wrong with the serotonin levels and how they reach my brain. Wishing you the best!

[colognetw]

practical design and cute! i saw u in ur mirror... :))

[ErinBranham7381]

@colognetw Peek-a-boo! Ha :-)
