how to: turn a belt into a purse strap....

Sometimes it can seem impossible to find a good leather purse strap. In many of my purse classes, we've discussed how to make a purse handle/strap from an old belt....which is a great way to re-cycle or up-cycle something that is just collecting dust. In response to a recent e-mail request for long straps (which I no longer carry, as they've been discontinued), I decided to write it all down to share. And so now I'm sharing it with you.....


I hope it makes sense....please don't hesitate to get in touch should you have any ?? or need clarification. If you click on the picture above, it will display larger and should be readable.
