Purse Experiment

But first, my oldest boy and his latest freeform Lego invention, an elephant.

I had to include that picture. I love the ears and tusks!

I'd been seeing book purses on various craft sites, and thought I'd try making one. I used an old hardback book with an interesting cover, and a belt I never used which came with a skirt I bought.
Here's the front and back of the finished product.




It's not very roomy, nor very secure. You can see that the closure is only a D-ring, and the few contents you could cram in would be totally exposed.

So I'm done with making this style of purse. It was an okay experiment though.



Oh, here comes the boy with another creation...
