Transform a mundane table mat into a glamorous fifties-style bag with this nifty project. The straw base combined with retro stones and colourful trim makes this clutch an eye-catching piece, perfect for an evening on the town.
Make a bag
Place a dinner plate at one corner of a woven mat and draw around the curve. Do the same on the opposite corner, then carefully cut along the lines. Glue five orange gemstones around the edge of the flap, placing one in the centre and two on each side, at 3cm intervals. Add four green circles in the spaces between and turquoise sprays around them. Sew each gem down with matching thread once the glue is dry. Embellish the design with a few straight stitches of embroidery thread.
