I make all kinds of stuff out of chip bags. Stuff like shoes, boxing gloves, picture frames, cowboy hats and more.

I'm working on a blog page with the instructions so that everyone can make one.

At the bottom of the blog page, please leave me your comments with a post, thank you.

I can't find the instructions either. However, I do know how to make the purses. It is the same basic pattern that you would use to weave a basket. You would use long strips of the bags and lay them out flat in a criss cross pattern. Look up basket weaving and find a basket shaped like the purse you want to make then follow the directions. I promise it will work.

Lil m,
Could you share how to make the zig zag designed necklaces. We may be able to use that as a basis for the start of the candy wrapper purses.

Thanks

I wish I could. I am looking for a pattern on one too. I have already made a cereal one and a jammers purse but I want to make a Lays chip purse too.
