I made this wallet from the great directions on Confessions of a Fabricaholic- HERE. For the outside of the wallet I decided to use the material of an old purse I had been holding onto.
First I had to reduce the purse down to "fabric." So to start I cut off the top and bottom.
Then I cut out the size of material I need out of it. I also cut out the magnetic snap and zipper in the purse and used them in the wallet too.
And I LIKE it!
My favorite part of the wallet is this cool vintage button I used on the closure.
It was a great purse- now its a great wallet!
