The Beer Case Purse

[seaphrael]

Hey guys! I've been investigating stuff on this site for a while, and I finally joined today after finishing my first project. This was inspired by the scrabble box purse featured on the site as well as me coming across an awesome beer case. It's a fairly basic design- I cut out the sides and the insides of the box, covered the outside with clear contact paper, lined it with foam core (it took a lot of contact cement and several tries), and then fabric. I used purse handles from JoAnn's and attached them with ribbon. To keep the purse closed, I glued a beer cap on to a plastic bobbin case, which is attached on one side, and then attached a ribbon on the other which can be wound around said bobbin to keep it shut. It holds the basics and hasn't fallen apart on me yet...enjoy.
