So, I don't know if you saw my post about my new obsession with Jo Totes..
The camera bag slash purse!!! :)
Well, yes obsessed!
In my OBSESSED, CRAZED, CAFFEINATED state, I found a tutorial to make my own....
And then I thought, NOOOOOOOO I AM GONNA BUY 1!!!
So fast forward about 6 hours and I got home and thought, hey I have the bag and the fabric...
What the hey!!??? Here SHE IS!!!!!!
*JUMPING UP AND DOWN*
*ROLLING ON THE GROUND , SUPER EXCITED*
*BEAMING WITH A PERMA-SMILE* :)

1st find a bag you like. I have had this bag, and thought it's perfect with all the pockets |
take some foam... had this from the Boutique wipe case |
Measure your purse on the bottom, and sides. Cut the foam accordingly.. |
Stuff 2nd and thid piece repeating the closures
Close the seam on the end..Should look like this...ALMOST DONE! |
Fold up in a "U" shape..Middle foam pad goes on the bottom of the purse and the side panels up the sides |
I also made little inserts to seperate the lens from the camera. Make these the same way, like a pillow cover..but leave about 1 inch flaps on the sides so you can add velcro to insert and remove them |
Isn't she BEAUT-IMOUS?!!
I apologize but I STALKED searched a LOT of blogs for this tutorial...there were a lot of different ways and I when I SPRUNG into action this is the way that came to mind and I don't recall where from..But thank you!
PHOTOG' FABULOSITY, WHAT, WHAT???
