  Step 1

  Cut one of your jeans' leg.
  .
  Skinny jeans works well if you want to make a little bag. If you want to make a not-so-little one, I recommended using bigger jeans.I used my Dad's in this case.
  .
  But well, it's up to your imagination to choose(◦'⌣'◦)

• 

  Step 2

  Adjust the to the length you desire. Just cut it. This is going to be your bag's length.

• 

  Step 3

  3.1 Reverse your jeans.
  .
  .
  3.2 And sew the edge of it.
  I don't have a sewing-machine. So pardon my bizzare stitch. m(_ _)m

• 

  Step 4

  Reverse your jeans. The stitch should look like this (^o^)

• 

  Step 5

  5.1 Prepare a cardboard
  This is going to be the one to make shape for your bag. The one that you put on the bottom inside the bag.
  *Sorry, I don't know what it called by*
  .
  .
  5.2 Cover it with the leftover of the jeans.

• 

  Step 6

  Put the cardboard inside. Now, it should be look like this.

• 

  Step 7

  Stitch the edge of upper side of your bag. Still, for making it looks like a real bag （‐＾▽＾‐）

• 

  Step 8

  The bag is too long for me. So I decided to fold it a little bit inside. No sew require. I use the glue gun.
  .
  .
  *Alright, I admitted. I was lazy. You should stitch it if you want to secure it right*

• 

  Step 9

  I use chains for the handle. You can use leather, ropes, whatever. Just let your imagination go wild.
  .
  Anyway, the eyelets are already there.
  .
  If you want to use eyelets, you can pierced your bag a little to put the eyelets, then secure it using a nail.

  .

  Or simply use an eyelet pliers. *much easier*

  Step 10

  Decorate it as you like! Put studs, laces, beads, whatever embellishments you can think with.
  .
  .

  ...and TA-DA! ヽ(^▽^)/
  There's come your new bag.
