Recycle her accessories

mages7You might have made clutches or potli bags out your grandmother’s old benarasi saree, now try it out with your teenager’s denims or even the cover of a novel. Take out that old denim skirt or trouser and instruct your tailor to “cut of the legs” – in case of a pair of trousers – and close the “base” with a denim piece. Ask him to fashion “handles” from the remaining material and to stitch on a zip at the top. If you want a novel for a bag, find cover that’s really bright. Ask your regular handyman to fix a lining inside the cover and on the sides. Buy wooden handles, or get handles from an old bag or even large, thick bangles and use them as handles. Fix a zip on the top.
