Once again, Deborah from Wonderwoman Creations shows us a fabulous transformation!  She took a placemat, a spool of ribbon and a button and made an adorable handbag.  She gives us step-by-step instructions, including how to tie that cute bow, on her blog.  [go to tutorial]

I can't wait to try this with one of the placemats I couldn't resist getting at the dollar store!

Project Estimate:

  • Placemat, $1
  • Spool of ribbon, $4
  • Button, on hand
  • Felt scrap, on hand

Total Cost: $5
