In the wide world of crafting, many techniques and ideas come in and out of style. Have you ever noticed that? Let's take plastic canvas for example.
Making plastic canvas bags was very popular at one time. It went out of style for a long while. And now IT’S BACK!!!
There are so many things to create from plastic canvas. Check out our plastic canvas project page for ideas.
Lately, plastic canvas bags and purses are very popular. Making a personal handbag or tote bag is a lot of fun, and these make wonderful gifts.
We have put together a long list of free plastic canvas purse patterns as well as free plastic canvas tote bag patterns that make cute and stylish bags to carry.
It’s possible to pick up a plastic canvas purse form at craft stores, but the projects below are so inexpensive to make by using sheets of plastic canvas that are cut specifically for the plastic canvas bags.
If you are looking for plastic canvas for these projects, it can be easily purchased at any crafting store. As I said, it’s very cheap! And the end result is spectacular!
Many of these projects can be made using yarn scraps as well, keeping the costs even lower. Check out more ideas for using up those yarn scraps!
