If you have old jeans, do not rush to throw them away. They can still come in handy!
For example, from the back pockets you can make a convenient cosmetic bag.
For work you will need:
- two pockets from jeans of the same size
- zipper (the same length or slightly longer than the upper side of the pocket)
- sewing machine
- matching sewing threads
You can also decorate a cosmetic bag with an applique and hang a brush on a zipper lock.
Step 1
Gently open your jeans pockets.Step 2
Pin the buttoned zipper to the inside of the pockets along the top edge and sew the zipper back, about 1 cm from the edge (along the green lines).

Step 3
Decorate pockets with appliqués. Or skip this step if you do not want to decorate your makeup bag.
Step 4
Fold the pockets with the wrong sides to each other. If the zipper is longer than the pockets, tuck its ends inward.
Step 5
Stitch the details of the pockets on the open sides with a zigzag stitch.
Step 6
Place extra lines at the top of the makeup bag (near the zipper) to secure the corners.

Step 7
Hang a decorative brush on the zipper tongue. The brush will not only serve as a decoration, but also make it easier to open and close the makeup bag.
Done!
