DIY Bags
One of the easiest things to make on your own is the handbag. There are free patterns all over the internet, and if you have any old purses that you don’t use any more, it’s easy enough to use them as a template for new ones. I personally like this idea, because my husband's jeans get ripped up so severely, I can't convert them to something that requires a lot of fabric anymore.
You can make messenger bags from the body of the jeans, and the legs provide fabric for smaller bags. It's also possible to use parts from different pairs of pants, if you have multiple pairs that need to be disposed of.
The little handbag I regularly use was made from an old pair of my hubby’s jeans and fabric scraps from an old project. It’s held up well, and is casual enough to match with almost everything I happen to be wearing.
Depending on how much fabric you can salvage from your jeans, your handmade bags can be an impressive range of sizes. The pictured bag is great for a wallet, cell phone, keys and a couple of other small essentials. You loop it around your wrist and off you go.
Messenger bags, on the other hand, can be used as shopping bags or book bags. I take mine out on thrift store outings, and I've even carried it around a local convention to carry extra food, water and whatever goodies I purchased.
I got a lot of comments and compliments on it. People were always impressed when I let them know I made it myself, out of upcycled clothing, too.
Lining a Bag or Making Patches
Because denim is thick, but still flexible, it’s great to use as lining for fabric bags. It offers them the shape they need without being too rigid. It also adds a little more durability, and depending on the color, won’t show through thinner fabrics.
For crochet or knit bags, it stops things like pencils falling through. If the crochet stitch is big enough, the denim can add an interesting backdrop to the yarn.
It's also easy to make patches out of the scraps you've cut from the old jeans, as well. Those can be used to mend clothing you still want to use, or as decoration for one of your new creations. By using scraps as patches, you're wasting very little while developing a fashion all your own.
While bag linings might take a little more fabric, patches are great, because you can make them out of jeans that are otherwise unusable. If you're layering your patch over something, just hem around the edges for a nice, clean look.

DIY Wall Art
Jeans pockets have an interesting look to them. Women’s pockets, in particular, usually have some sort of ornamental stitching or embroidery.
Cut around the pocket without actually cutting into it. When you're done, you'll have a tiny, flat bag. Then, punch two holes into the top at either corner, and thread cording through it. I used some old leather cording, but things like hemp or even yarn are possibilities. If you know how to do macrame, you can probably come up with some very unique knot work patterns.
There we have it: a simple bag to hang on your wall. It's a fun accent, and storage for small objects. Who doesn't love multifunctional decoration?
There are countless ideas. Another option is to cut the waistline of the jeans from the body, while keeping the belt loops intact. You can then secure the fabric to a wooden base to help it keep its shape, run a belt through the loops and use cloths pins to hang pictures off of the belt.
Sew Pillows
You can make all sorts of pillows. The round pillows used for back support are especially suitable for jeans conversion. Although jeans legs taper, they’re still very handy for making this type of pillow.
Since denim has such a rustic look, it fits in with many family rooms and bedrooms with minimal ornamentation. This type of pillow also offers great support to the lower back.
Other ideas you can look into for reusing your old jeans are:
• Patches for quilts
• Cat toys
• Bedding for small animals
• Handmade paper
