Hot glue sticks or hot glue rope

Add a drop of hot glue to the end of the rope, and begin rolling the rope onto itself.

Continue adding glue along the outside of the rope and curling it around itself into a circle.

Follow this same process until you are happy with the size of the circle of rope. I made mine about 10" wide.

Clip the end of the rope and glue it to the edge

Repeat this process again so that you have two equal rope circles to go on the outside of your purse.

Add hot glue all over one side of each circle, then press the stabilizing cloth onto the circles and press down to seal all over the rope circle.

Trim the excess stabilizer off the edges so you have a lined circle on one side and a rope on the other.

Cut slits onto the zipper every inch on both sides so it will fold and stay in place easily once glued without bunching.

Glue one side of the zipper onto one of the rope circles.

Take the rope and glue short lengths on the empty space where there is no zipper. Glue this until the same height as the zipper is wide.

Cut a length of rope the length you want your shoulder strap. Make sure you hang it over your shoulder to measure how it will fall on your hip or side, and add 2-3 inches on either end of the rope.

Glue the rope or strap to the sides of the purse and let the glue seal before using. For added stabilization, add a patch of leather over the end of the rope and stitch it in place.

Next, add a length of glue all along the top edge of the rope and place the second rope circle on top, sealing it to the bottom.

Add additional glue all along the zipper edge and connect so that it is sealed.

Add beaded ribbon or beads along the outside edge of one side of the purse.

Now you can use your purse!
