Upcycled Jeans Tote

Upcycled Jeans Tote
"Here is an easy DIY upcycled denim tote bag. This bag is easy to make and requires a pair of jeans, some lining fabrics, leather strapping and some rivets. This project is easy to sew once you have your jeans deconstructed. It takes a little bit of time to pick out the seams and to remove the waistband but otherwise this is a quick and easy tote bag to construct. The only specialty tools you will need for this project is a rivet setting tool and some rivets that you can find at any fabric store."
