DIY handbag spring decor

Send

A rubber rug, rivets - that’s all that is needed to make a regular bag spring-like. And in this way, you can unrecognizably transform the old accessory.

Stylized flowers will make youth even a "grandmother" bag. And creating such a decor is very simple.

YOU WILL NEED
Bag, rubber mat, rivets, thread, needle for sewing, hammer, cardboard, awl, knife-spreader (for seams), scissors, pencil, marker for film.
STEP 1
The given motifs should be increased to the required size and cut along the external contours. Transfer to cardboard and cut.
STEP 2
Pencil motifs to translate on a rubber mat. The number of motives depends on the size of your bag.

STEP 3
On the side of the bag where there will be motives, tear off the lining along the open edge of the bag.
STEP 4
Mark the location of motives with a marker and make holes in these places with an awl from the outside.
STEP 5
Draw the bottom side of the rivets from the inside through the hole punctured with an awl, string the motifs cut from the rubber mat, then put on the top of the rivet. Secure the rivet with a hammer (pay attention to the manufacturer's instructions). Finally, re-stitch the lining seam at the top of the bag.
