You will need:
- fabric 1 m wide, 50 cm long. It can be satin, silk, organza, usually to match the dress. If the material is transparent, it is better to take it twice as much and sew in two layers;
- a button or clasp, which should not be massive, preferably invisible;
- jewelry to your taste: beads, beads, rhinestones, lace, etc .;
- threads, needles, ruler, compasses.
When everything is ready, you can start cutting your future wedding bag. There will be three parts in total: two circles with a diameter of 12 cm and a strip 15 cm wide and 55 cm long. When all the parts are prepared, you can start sewing.
1. Add two circles seamy side out. Sew with an overlock stitch, not completely. Without cutting off the threads, turn out the resulting circle, and close the remaining hole. Thus, we have got the bottom of the future accessory.
2. We pass to the main part of the product. We take the prepared strip of fabric, bend it about 2 cm and fasten it with a needle-forward seam. If you are familiar with the blind stitch, then it is better to use it, then the stitches on the front side will not be visible.
3. Then we fasten our strip on the sides with the already familiar overcasting seam. You should have a cylinder that with seamy side you need to sew to the bottom, making small folds.
4. Then, at a distance of 2 cm from the edge, it is necessary not to tightly gather the sides. If the edges are tightly gathered, then the purse will not open later. The main work has come to an end.
Now you need to sew handles, fasteners and decorations to the makeshift bag. Handles can be different. You can use lightweight chains, beads, ready-made ribbon, or the same fabric. There are a lot of options for decorating wedding accessories.
Tulle and lace. A circle with a diameter of about 30 cm is cut out of tulle, gathered at the edges, and the finished bride's handbag is placed in this bag. The lace is sewn in the form of a skirt, in one or several layers.
Embroidery. Lurex threads can be used to embroider silhouettes of swans, hearts and much more on the front side.
Beads. Beads. Rhinestones. Such decorations can be placed on the fabric in a chaotic manner, or various patterns can be depicted.
In our product we used handles made of the same material and beads as decoration. What your little box will be for the necessary things on such a significant day depends only on your imagination.

To date, this accessory has a rather ambiguous fame. The reason for this was that the opinions of the girls about the need to use this element were divided.
Some are absolutely sure that the bride should have only a bouquet and nothing else in her hands. After all, holding anything else in your hands is extremely inconvenient. Therefore, it is more logical to ask your girlfriends to arm themselves with a cosmetic bag and a handkerchief, and give the phone to one of the relatives.
Agree that it is much more convenient when all your things are at your fingertips, and in order to get the same powder compact, you do not need to call your friend to you.
In addition, do not forget that designers work hard every day to create not only beautiful, stylish accessories, but also strive to make them more practical and comfortable.
According to experts, this little thing not only competes with an imaginary inconvenience, but also adds more grace to the bride's image.
Models on the market
As mentioned above, designers are working tirelessly to create new models. Therefore, on the market you can easily find not only an inexpensive accessory, but also one that suits you in all respects.
Let's take a closer look at which models are most widely used and with which dresses they are best combined.
Pouch bag
It is often called pompadour among the people, because it fits well with princess-style dresses, which have a fairly fluffy and long skirt.
It is worth noting that of all possible models, this one is rightfully considered the most convenient. After all, thanks to the fact that instead of a handle she has strings, she can be quite calmly tied on her arm.
Some brides prefer to wear it at the waist because their hands are free. Most often they are made of satin, brocade.
But in Lately Lace and knitted wedding handbags, which are in the shape of a bag, are especially popular.
Heart bag
Some especially romantic natures prefer to use this particular model, since it can be used to emphasize the image and emphasize the femininity. These bags are ideal for dresses that have a fitted silhouette.
Often they are specially decorated. various stones, rhinestones. Pearls are sometimes used.
Experts point out that in order to create a successful image involving the use of a heart bag, you should choose dresses with a minimum of jewelry.
Pouch bag
This model belongs to the varieties of pouch bags. The main difference is the pronounced elongated shape, as well as the ribbons located close to the edge.
Handbags are made only of noble fabrics, and they are suitable for dresses decorated with crinoline.
Clutch
Ideal for any long dresses and serves as an excellent complement to the image.
If you decide to purchase this particular model, we strongly recommend that you choose only those with a removable strap. This will allow you to free your hands if necessary.
Clutch bag
Just a few years ago, this accessory was only used in the winter. But nowadays it is widely used in summer weddings as well.
Most often, such products are equipped with an internal small pocket, which is fastened with a zipper.
They are decorated not only with lace, but with flowers. Moreover, flowers can be both live and artificial.
Do it yourself!
It should be noted that such accessories are often quite expensive. And that is why most women refuse to buy them.
But the designers are sure that if you really want to go to your own wedding without fail with a handbag, then it is not necessary to give up this venture.
After all, you can make a handbag for the bride with your own hands, keeping costs to a minimum. Plus, your design will be truly unique and will match your chosen look.
Do not think that only a professional seamstress can sew such a wedding accessory on your own. Not at all!
Any girl can handle this task.
Before proceeding directly to the sewing process, you should decide what material you will use. Remember that the material you have chosen must be combined in texture and shade with the dress itself.
Fabrics such as silk, satin or guipure lined are considered the most suitable in this case.
As soon as you decide on the fabric, stock up on such materials: a disc, two satin ribbons with different widths, decorative elements and a piece of tulle (nylon).
From the material (satin, silk or guipure), you need to cut the bottom to the size of the disc and sew its edges so that you get a round bottom.
Next, take the same fabric and cut a strip about 25 centimeters wide from it. Its length should be equal to the circumference of the disc with allowances taken into account, which are necessary for folds. You need to sew the edges of this strip to make a pipe. Now all that remains is to sew these two parts together.
After that, you should step back 3 centimeters from the top and make cuts in the material (vertical). A strip should be cut out of nylon or tulle with the same length as the satin ribbon. However, its height should be 2 or 3 cm higher.
The bottom edge must be sewn to the bottom of the bag, and the top must be connected to the satin edge. There should be small holes in the top material for you to insert your purse handle.
And now your accessory is almost ready. It remains only to decorate it.
Pay attention to the photo of the bride's handbag, which is presented below. It shows a homemade accessory that has been decorated with embroidery. Therefore, if you know how to embroider, you can use this decoration option.

And little things (like lipstick, a mirror and a hairbrush) can be entrusted to a girlfriend. But it's better to keep everything to yourself. And, in order to complement the image and give it originality, some experts recommend sewing an unusual handbag with your own hands.

" But you can create a designer item in just a couple of hours, which perfectly complements the whole ensemble. By the way, you do not need to be a professional seamstress or attend cutting and sewing courses on the eve of the celebration. Some models are so easy to design that it only takes a little patience and time. Moreover, a hand-sewn handbag for a bride can be combined not only with a dress, but also with a garter or a boutonniere in the groom's buttonhole.
Models of wedding handbags
Today there are many options for wedding handbags that you can sew with your own hands. One of the most popular designs is a small pouch that can be made in just an hour. Moreover, you can do without expensive sewing machine and overlock.
Options for the bride's handbags:
- Handbag-pouch with braid or ribbon handles, sewn from lace or satin.
- Handbag in the form of a heart or a flower. The form is chosen depending on the wishes of the bride. Unfortunately, only a skilled needlewoman can sew such beauty on her own.
- Handbag in the form of a flower bouquet.
- Purse bag with metal clasp.
- Clutch or envelope.
- Original model, crocheted from several types of beautiful and expensive threads.
Pompadour Mod Bridal Bag
It will become an original addition to the overall outfit and will contain all the little things necessary for the bride. You can sew it yourself from knitted or satin fabrics. When choosing a material, it is important that its edge does not crumble during cutting. If you wish, you can pick up a beautiful braid or cord made of gold or silver thread, as well as various decorations: beads, sequins, rhinestones and flowers.
Making a pattern is actually very simple. A circle with a diameter of 12-15 cm is drawn on a regular sheet, as well as one rectangle (30 cm long and 20 cm high). One rectangular and two round parts are cut from the selected fabric. The latter are used for the bottom of the handbag. To prevent the bottom from sagging, it is necessary to strengthen it with cardboard. We put hard paper between the round parts and sew a seam on a typewriter (or process it by hand). Moreover, for density, you can use not a cardboard circle, but an ordinary DVD disc. It will keep its shape much better.
After the bottom of the bag is ready, it must be steamed with an iron. This is done through gauze or cotton cloth. The next step is to sew a fabric rectangle with a short side. We mark the resulting detail to the bottom of the future handbag. We attach the bottom to the sides, and then iron it again.
Now we bend the top edge by 2 cm, sew it again on a typewriter (manual processing is permissible). We make a small incision to insert strings or ribbons that will become the handles of the future handbag. To prevent the fabric from unraveling at the incision sites, it processes it with an overcast seam. Now we decorate everything with sequins, beads, rhinestones, roses, tulle, etc. In fairness, it should be noted that such a cute little thing will help any girl to become a real queen on her best day.
Bridal pouch bag
To sew a handbag for a bride with your own hands in the form of a bag, you can choose dense knitwear, satin, guipure or wide lace. It is worth noting that the fabric should keep its shape well, and also be combined in texture with the dress and other accessories.
So, first we draw the pattern on the album sheet. Depending on the wishes and possibilities, we choose the shape of the future bag. It can be made in the form of a semi-oval (with a rounded bottom) or have a rectangular bend. Do not forget that too large a bag will look pretentious. Optimal size: height - 25 cm, width - 30 cm.
If not one, but several types of fabric are combined, it is necessary to cut out two identical parts. We sew the blanks together. We insert lacing between the seams, which will simultaneously serve as bag handles and a fastener. Then we sew them on sewing machine, stepping back from the edge of the fabric by about 0.5 cm. Turn the seams inside out and steam with an iron.
We decorate the bag with artificial flowers, beads, beads and other little things. Having created an original accessory, the fair sex will perfectly complement her image. By the way, at the same time, a talented bride can easily stand out among other beauties.
Purse bag for retro brides
For sewing, the fair sex needs to take a large flap of dense lace, about 1 meter long and about 50 cm wide. The lining fabric should be 25 by 40 cm in size. You will also need a frame for a bag with a clasp and a metal chain (for a handle).
On thick paper, draw a pattern of two parts (13 by 15 cm), which will become the main part of the bride's handbag. Side - 35 x 4 cm. Cut out everything with seam allowances. Before starting, we put the lace on the wrong side, then we sweep it to the base. Then we process the fabric on a sewing machine. In the same way, we sew together the details of the lining.
We turn out the future handbag on front side and put in the liner. To prevent the seams from puffing up, we steam the workpieces with an iron, giving the necessary shape. We attach the handle. We only sweep it with our own hands, while collecting the fabric in small folds. Gently attach the chain strap using small carabiners or metal wire. This kind of handbag looks just as good as the one you can buy at the store.
Envelope or clutch bag
Recently, many brides prefer envelope-shaped handbags. You can purchase a ready-made accessory or sew it yourself. Moreover, having decided to make a bag with your own hands, you can create an original and unique little thing. Everything about everything will take you no more than an hour, but in the future with such beauty you can even go to parties.
To sew an envelope handbag, you need a thick fabric with a smooth surface, thin skin white or cream color. You can save a lot if you purchase leftover material from a large roll. To fix the fabric, you need a special glue that will connect the base to the top.
In stores, you can find a fairly large number of original accessories, the cost of which will definitely be affordable for you. Clasps, buckles and other little things will make even the most ordinary-looking thing bright and attractive. The main thing is to show imagination. By the way, some brides even sew flower decorations with their own hands.
As for the pattern, it is done on thick cardboard, which will become the frame of the handbag. The size depends on your personal wishes and preferences. But an envelope that is too small or too large will not be very comfortable to carry. Better to make a medium rectangle (30 cm long and about 15 cm wide).
In order not to spoil the fabric, you can first try to fold the envelope from plain paper... After a few workouts, start cutting the fabric and creating your purse. According to the selected shape, we cut out a base from the material, which we glue on a cardboard blank. Letting our creation dry. If desired, you can make the inside lining of silk or crepe satin. It is attached with contact adhesive.
Now we carefully bend the future handbag to get a rectangle in the form of an envelope with a lid. We sew on the sides by hand strips of fabric or leather (no more than 4 cm wide). You can use a magnet buckle or fabric Velcro to secure the lid. All of this is sold in specialized stores. If you plan to wear a clutch bag on your shoulder, make a long handle out of thick fabric piping or a metal chain. Congratulations, the chic DIY accessory is finally ready.
Crochet handbag for the bride
For those who are familiar with knitting and crocheting, you can choose such an unusual bag model. At the same time, a hand-made thing will be much more convenient and practical. You will need yarn that matches the dress. You also need a plastic or cardboard folder to stiffen, a silk ribbon or a tight cord of gold or silver thread.
We knit two circles with a diameter of about 20 cm. In the last two rows we leave holes for the future handle of your handbag. We steam off the resulting parts with an iron so that they do not look too wrinkled. Cut a circle out of cardboard or plastic (equal to circles knitted from yarn).
We sew the parts together. We leave a small hole to insert the plastic frame. We put the sealant. Finally, over the entire diameter of the circle, we fasten the parts of the bag. We fold the resulting product in half, giving the shape of a semicircle. Sew the edges on both sides, leaving a small distance so that you can fold the little things necessary for the bride. We decorate the product with ribbons, beads, artificial flowers. We cling to the handle. It can be crocheted or sewn with a satin ribbon.
Having chosen the model of the bride's handbag you like, you can make an original accessory in just a few hours. Such beauty will be an excellent addition to the overall look and will cause white envy among girlfriends. And on the happiest day of your life you will be able to boast not only chic dress from the salon, but also the ability to create a beautiful little thing yourself.
