Old Jeans to Denim Tote Bag
<div class="text-justify">
I have few old jeans that I need to dispose. Its kinda waste to throw them away. I saw this DIY on how to make a Tote bag in the internet. So, I decided to make one using these old jeans. I used three pair of old jeans in varying colors of denim to make this tote.
</div>

## Materials
<div class="text-justify">

- 3 pairs of old jeans

- Scissor

- cloths for lining 

- Sewing machine

- Safety pins
</div>

## How to Make
<div class="text-justify">
Cut 8 inch wide strips from the legs of the jeans. These six legs yielded enough strips of denim to make 2 totes.

</div>

<div class="text-justify">
Sew the strips of denim together. Cut to make a tote bag pattern. Then sew it together. Line (inner side) the denim with another clothes in accordance to the tote bag pattern.
</div>

<div class="text-justify">
To add the tote bag handles, cut from the denim fabric. Cut two 2-inch-wide strips of equal length from the denim fabric. Fold each strip in half so that the inside of the fabric faces outward. Sew the long edges together to make a straight stitch along the long edges of both handles. 
</div>

<div class="text-justify">
Turn the handles right-side-out and flatten it with an iron.

Now, the handles is ready to be sew to the bag. Fold the ends of the handles under about half inch. Iron them to create a crease and place the ends over the marks to show where the handles should go. 
</div>

<div class="text-justify">
Stitch the handles to the bag. Make a square stitch onto the overlapping handle fabric to hold it firmly.
</div>

<div class="text-justify">
Here's  the DIY tote bag I made today. Try to DIY it yourself and you be surprised how easy it is!
