DIY: T-shirt Beach Tote. 29 June 2012 I woke up a few weeks ago, checked my email, and was beyond happy to see that Gap (of all places?)
Had sent me an email about creating a diy beach tote. Floppy Disk Bag. Vinyl Record Purse. Book Bag. Book Clutch. I love things that are quirky, and if they boarder on the nerdy side of quirky I love them even more.
Olympia Le-Tan’s handmade embroidered book clutches are so perfectly and quaintly quirky that I immediately fell in love. If the clutches alone hadn’t already woo-ed me sufficiently, the film she made with Spike Jonze for Nowness definitely would have tipped me over the edge into obsession. The real thing starts around $1,300, but you can DIY for about $15! VHS videotape clutch. VHS Case Handbag. Fusing Plastic Bags.
