No-Sew Cereal Box Clutch Purses

Previous Post | Next Post

Seriously, cereal boxes?  I found this idea on the crazy (as in awesomely) talented Alisa Burke’s website, [demo here] but made mine with gussets, rather than flat….well, cuz I need more room in a purse.  My version is also a no-sewing required one….just didn’t have it in me to haul out the sewing machine, since I have so many art supplies everywhere, one more thing…well, I just couldn’t do it.  My messes get out of control. One more thing to trip over?  No thanx!

HOW I DID IT?

I followed Alisa’s instruction, but I made my own pattern. You just paint like crazy, cut, fold here, fold there, add a button closure…and voila!  Now, would someone please invite me out for a nice dinner so I can sport one of these cuties? : )

How fun are these? Oh yeah, the size.

9″ across, 5.5″ top to bottom (closed) and about 1.5″ deep with gusset.  Click on a thumbnail below to scroll thru the enlarged pics.
