Bleached jeans bag

When I first found out that bleached denim is something that makes my heart beat faster I decided to work with it much more often. As you remember my post about the project I made during TEKO times which was about making Balmain - ish jacket that was the first time I used bleached denim. It was a huuuuge risk, I didn't have much time and I just decided to be all in for bleaching. Old jeans I had were floating in the bleaching product for like 3 or 4 days, I was super scared if that laboratory experiment will turn out as a success... What a relief I felt when the jeans finally got lighter!

So, today I want to show you my new project, something I made on my own and something I've been dreaming of since I fell in love with the boho/gypsy/bohemian/chic style :)

This is my base. The old jeans that my father has used or the pairs that he doesnt fit anymore. 

I cut the into pieces and let them be in the bleaching product for 3 days.

Then I was thinking what shape should my bag have, I only was sure about fringes but shape and size? I had no clue.. 

Then I was attaching the strings in order to check how it will look, haha my faces show all the process ;)

And the final look:

I am super happy with this project, even though jeans is very difficult to work with, as it's very thick and my maschine could not really cope with too many layers.. but I managed!! :)
