I got this tutorial from Hermes' official website, however the patterned templates and the tutorial are not on the site anymore. I will do my best to explain how to make your own, customized super cute Hermes paper bag. If you have any questions, leave a comment below!

Print out the blank bag template from the following link onto thin card: http://coquette.blogs.com/hermes_paperkelly_pattern.jpg Also print out the instructions (on plain paper or scrap paper): http://coquette.blogs.com/hermes_paperkelly_instructions.jpg
Decorate the blank template using whatever you like! Use paint, markers, color pencils, crayons, color pens, anything really. Free your mind :) Alternatively, you can decorate your blank handbag template on Photoshop and then print it out and assemble it.
Cut out the blank bag template and the three "straps". The last strap will be the handle while the other two will connect the bag together.
Now comes the difficult part. Follow the instruction paper by hill folding or valley folding the lines. I find it easier to score lightly along the line before I fold.
Slice or score the blue lines. Then slide the straps and handle through the holes.
Glue or use double sided tape to stick the bag together where the orange dots are.
Now you have your very own custom made Hermes handbag! Make as many as you wish to create your own handbag collection!
