To make this fun tote, salvage an old and worn pair of your jeans or purchase an inexpensive pair at your favorite thrift shop. Use the existing pockets for the exterior pocket and for a hanging pocket on the inside–for your phone and other small essentials. This tote is the perfect size if you prefer a small purse or it makes a great book bag to carry your favorite book or e-reader. It’s also a nice size for a bag for your tween or teen.
