i made this bag out of old jeans and trinkets i had collected - i saw the idea somewhere but i really don't remember where - probably in line at walmart - anyway, i thought, well that's what i can do with all those pairs of jeans people leave behind in the storage units - i literally have hundreds of pairs of jeans - i hate throwing away clothes with interesting patterns, fabrics or usable lengths - so i looked through them and found some that would work for this idea - found a pair - cut them up - added trim i had saved here and there - pieces of this - pieces of that - everything on this bag - everything used to make this bag, is something someone tossed away - kind of cool, don'tcha think? --
