Instructions

  1. Small marc by marc jacobs miss marc gets physical tote 1278982188

    Take your old Marc Jacobs tote and Carefully rip the seams. It's a little time consuming. Make sure you have a sturdy ripper.. These threads are the toughest I've ever dealt with.

    When you removed the seams you will end up with two different kinds of fabric to work with. I kept the Lamé fabric for a seperate bow.

  3. Assemble the bows from large 8 inch rectangles, You can use any type of filler to give it height. I used poly filler for my bow. It's kinda like a cute bow pillow.

    The Lamé side of the fabric is done the same way!
