How to Make Your Own Pencil Case and Makeup Bag – No Sewing Required!

I enjoy sewing, but I have to say it is something I am still struggling to learn, so I am always looking for no-sew projects. Most no-sew projects don’t look nearly as impressive as sew projects, but now and again, you come across an exception. For example, check out this awesome video I just found that teaches you how to make a pencil case and a makeup bag:

Both of these look really incredible when they are completed! Best of all, this video includes both sew and no-sew instructions, and neither is complicated. They are clearly presented, and I had no problem following them. After I try out the no-sew versions of the projects, I plan to try the sewing projects since they look very approachable. I think this will be a great learning process for me.

To add to the fun and creativity, these projects would also be easy to customize; not only can you pick any fabric that you want, but you could also add pretty embellishments. I haven’t tried out either of these designs yet, but I am totally excited to do so! These would make awesome gifts for people since you could personalize them (this should easily take care of all the birthday gifts I need to make this year, and maybe a few holiday gifts as well). I hope that you enjoy watching the video tutorial and have fun making these beautiful sew and no-sew projects!
