Mat Type Purse:
Every one of us have enjoyed the craft activities we have done in our childhood. One such simple craft activity I remember is "Weaving Paper Mat". Take two contrast colored square construction papers, leave margin of 1" on all four sides, mark with 1" vertical lines and cut them leaving margins. Then with other color make strips of 1" and start weaving.
I used this technique to make useful purse.
Material: Two contrast colored silk ribbons ( red and black) of width 1", scissor, needle, thread, Golden ribbon 1" width, red-black small beads, zipper, lining.
Procedure: Cut 18 pieces of the red color ribbon each of 11" long. Sew ribbons with one another width wise to make 8" background. Now cut 10 pieces of black ribbon each of length 9". Go on weaving black ribbons in and out the red ribbons along with the sweet and sour memories of your childhood. You may see the paper mat method in

When all black stripes are over the mat of 11 x 9 inches will be ready. Ends are folded and sewed. You can further decorate it by some bead work. Here three small red-black beads are sewed in the centre of each square.
Lining is sewed along with Zipper. Fold it, sew the sides and the purse is ready.
Size of the purse is flexible you can make it as per your need. You can make extra pocket inside. Instead of beads you can decorate it by your own idea, or you can make one small pom-pom and attach it to zipper. There is scope for your own creativity.
You can use this purse for keeping your make up accessories or candy for your baby or if you are travelling then use it for identity card etc.
