agm04 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I started this over on the OOT thread but it's definitely a DIY too! I couldn't find any beach bags I liked at the right price, so my friend and I are sewing them ourselves. We got the first one done last night, and I love the way it turned out. It's going to end up being about $4.50-$5 per bag (plus the endless hours of labor, but no one is paying us for that!). I put a magazine and water bottle in it to test it out, so that's what you can sort of see through the bag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllieH Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 these are amazing!!!!!! There are so many times like this when I wish I could sew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agm04 Posted August 10, 2012 Author Share Posted August 10, 2012 Thank you! It honestly isn't hard - just takes time. And you do need a sewing machine. If not for my friend, I'd never be brave enough to do it myself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ty, originally I bought enough materials for 36 bags, but let's just say we had a hard time keeping our guest list in check, and I had to buy stuff for another 20. So there will be 56, and if my parents keep adding people to the guest list, I don't know what I'll do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agm04 Posted September 26, 2012 Author Share Posted September 26, 2012 Oh and I ended up with 4 different styles. I'll post a pic of them all when I can remember to take a picture! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
