What can I make a wallet for trifles from?
Buying a single moshna is not always convenient, it's easier to make yourself a unique, stylish and convenient bag or envelope. The shape and final appearance will depend on the material, which will become the base when creating a masterpiece.
The cloth. It is easy to choose the color and pattern on the canvas, starting from preferences.
A fabric is an excellent solution for practicing handicrafts on creating wallets, making the first little bag for little things for a child, and experimenting with textures.
Leather. The classic material for creating such accessories. But for the little things, it's better to use other materials. It is expensive, fastidious in work, and with inept hands a pattern can be ruined.
Leather is ideal when creating a house for notes.
Felt. Fashion trend. Now everything is sewn from felt! It will look beautiful both for children, and for teenagers, and an adult felt wallet.
Felt wallets look great, easy to manufacture, and serve great. If you intend to use the accessory often, give preference to a dark color scheme (chocolate, wet asphalt, dark blue). So, the wallet will retain its original appearance longer.
Fur is beautiful, but in matters of creating a wallet for little things is not practical. You can invent a coin pocket with an interesting design and shape. But it should be remembered that such a thing will either very quickly lose its presentation with active use, or will be more likely to be accessory rather than functional.
Key virtue: beautiful, elegant.
Disadvantage: expensive, difficult to execute.
Wool (knitting). Convenient, easy to execute option. Such a wallet will serve faithfully. Its main feature is functionality.
When creating such an accessory, it is important to choose the right yarn and hook for work. So, yarn in three additions will be the best helper. A hook is best taken at 4.5-5 mm thick.
How can I decorate a homemade coin box?
Any accessory has a desire to decorate. To do this, you can apply several design options.
Beads look great on a fabric, felt, knitted wallet. It is enough to choose an embroidery pattern, choose the right beads in style, color and embroider.
Take care in advance that the thread is strong, you can take a thin, flexible fishing line. Fasten the embroidery more often, making knots from the wrong side. Remember that the wallet lies in the bag, rubs against various objects, is used often. One thread will open and the whole pattern will deteriorate.
Rhinestones look expensive and stylish if they are carefully fixed, and the ornament is carefully designed. In the question of design with rhinestones, the main thing is not to overdo it. For such decoration, you should take care of choosing the strongest glue. When buying it, look, first of all, on the basis of which the wallet is made.
Pompons are a fashionable trend. It is not recommended that they stylize the entire surface of the wallet. Typically, pompons are made as a hanging accessory, or attached to the ends of laces that tie a moshna. But small, perfectly sized pompons can also be sewn onto the wallet itself by constructing a voluminous pattern from them.
Stripes. This option includes embroidery with thread, patch of emblems, decorative braid or other elements. When dwelling on this design method, think about whether you will clean or wash the wallet, where it will be stored, how often you plan to use it. These factors affect the wear of a thing.
