Easy Leather Hobo Bag
I’m back with another YouTube video – this time, it’s a full-step video to make an Easy Leather Hobo Bag! This bag can be made in any material that can be left raw (so think cork fabric, vinyl, or leather), and it’s aimed at beginners or those who have yet to make a bag out of leather.
Easy Leather Hobo Bag sample
In my Easy Leather Hobo Bag sample bags, I used cork fabric from my shop (the blue bag) and faux leather fabric from my shop (the rose gold leather bag). This is a great slouchy bag for summer, and I immediately moved my purse items over to the rose gold bag, it’s so pretty!
