You need:
- 3 small zipped pouches. Mine were simple suede ones I picked up for a steal.
- 6 snap buttons
- Thread matching the colour of your bag
- A needle
- A length of flat gold curb chain
- A strap of some sort, either off the pouches themselves or handmade out of similar material.
- Optional tools include beading plyers and a multi hole punch (I didn’t end up using them).
Not wanting to completely replicate the Celine version, I created a gold chain strap which I think worked quite well, feel free to experiment with the type of strap you use!
How to:
1. If your bag has long straps (or little hand straps like mine did), remove them.
2. Lay out the buttons where you think you will place them – try to put them close to the top and side edge of the bag but not so they are too obvious. You can mark the bag with chalk if you like.
3. Using your needle and thread, sew the buttons on.
5. Do this for each bag so the three snap together. The one in the middle with have button on each side. Press all the buttons together to create your bag.
6. Sew your strap onto the chain.
7. Do that for both ends.
8. Finally, sew the straps onto the sides of the centre pouch.
Such an amazing idea. Love it!

Hello Geneva,
All diy’s that I post on my blog are taken from the internet and many times I save the pictures without knowing who is the author.
However, I’ve put the link to redirect to your site!
I apologize and I am sorry what happened.
Congratulations for your blog that I so adore!
Hi Joanna,
Thank you for getting back to me. I understand how the confusion could have happened. Thanks.

This is genius! Love this, I’m definitely going to be trying this, I cart around so much stuff on a day to day basis and I’m tired of having to shlump around with a big bag. How you think of all these diy’s is beyond me 🙂

Hello! I love your blog! I was just wondering if you could tell me where you got your gold chain for the strap of your bag? Thank you xxx
I bought it locally actually but will let you know if I find out where you can get it. 🙂
