Victorian Era Handbags crochet thread and glass beads

I did not use a pattern I free-styled this handbag. It is very simple after learning a few key crochet stitches to make this.

I used crochet thread and the larger size glass seed beads that are commonly available at any Michael's or Walmart.

I used a peyote stitch for the strap clasp which is simply a small tube that you slide up the straps to keep the bag closed.







here you may see the detail I applied to the wrist straps... two rows of clustered beads as an accent




and the completed bag as seen here. Just big enough for a night out Ladies!!! "n_n"

  1. This beaded hand bag may have gone out of style, but given the right changes, it's inevitable when it goes back in fashion.
