Tetrapak Wallet

So... I have finally finished making a wallet/purse from an apple juice carton.

I started this a few months ago.  I copied the design of a leather wallet I have and cut the pieces out of an apple juice carton. I was keen to make the whole wallet from one carton so I did adapt the design slightly.

I then punched out the holes everywhere I would need to sew it together.  I used the amazing little tool you can see in the top right of this picture and then used the stick to push out the pieces of the holes.


I then used plarn (yarn made from cutting strips of plastic bags) to sew it all together... 

 and voila!  In the end it was pretty simple so I could have finished it a lot quicker!!


The final result does actually seem functional so je suis contente...:-)
