I am always looking for ways to challenge myself creatively and as I was browsing the site I looked over onto my desk at a M&M wrapper. I thought, this could make a good bag! So I ran up to my room and spent an hour creating this little jewel. I personaly like the way it turned out!

-
Start with a empty bag of M&Ms.
-
Cut off the ends of the bag.
-
Flip you bag inside out and cut a slit through the bag until it is about one inch from each side. My bag was torn and torn more in the process of turning it inside out. So I hot glue the peices back together
-
Cut your denim to size and tack it to your bag with hot glue. Then stitch the denim using what I think it a blanket stitch until it looks like...
-
This!
-
Cut the excess material from the bag and then glue the edges using hot glue. (Or you could stitch but at this point I was too lazy to sew anymore:)
-
Flip the bag right side out and glue the little opening flap thingy down to make the outside of the purse smooth.
-
Trace around the circumference of the bag onto a peice of denim(this was two layers thick)Cut them out.
-
Glue one of the denim circles to one end of the bag. Repeat with the other side so it looks like...
-
This!
-
Make a handle. WHat I did was make a tube by rolling the denim, then tacking it with hot glue and then stapling it
-
Attatch the handle
-
And the it is! A bag that you can use to smuggle sweets into the movies!
