If you’re anything like me then you probably have a stockpile of mini cosmetic bags that you get from beauty subscription services.

Sometimes I’ll store my makeup in them for overnight trips but more than likely they sit unused in a drawer.

I think they’re too pretty to hide away in your purse and so I sought out to give them a new purpose. Here are three ways to transform makeup bags into something useful! Feel free to watch the video instructions or scroll down for pictures + words.

Wristlet

To ease into this DIY, let’s start with a wristlet which is basically just the makeup bags themselves but with a convenient strap for your wrist. There’s not a lot of fuss to it and you can really have fun customizing the strap! (FWIW, all of these bags are easy to adapt with your personal style. Exercise your creativity!)

Shoulder Bag

A shoulder bag is classic and never knows out of style. The best part of of this shoulder bag? How easy peasy it is to make!

Fanny Pack

My final bag is my favorite because YOU GUYS it’s a fanny pack! I’d also argue that it’s the simplest project to complete on this list. You’re just a few snips away from having the hottest accessory from 1980something!

Be sure to follow along because later in the week I’ll be modeling one of these DIY purses in an outfit post, as well as doing a “what’s in my bag” style post.
