Juice Pouch Coin Purse -- TUTORIAL

I've had a couple people ask me how I made my juice pouch coin purse from this post. This is SUPER easy, and takes only MINUTES -- even if you are nervous about sewing with zippers. Don't be scared!!

Supplies:

Empty Juice Pouch
(wash in soapy water, and squeeze water out on top of a towel with a rolling pin)
Zipper
(you'll want a little excess length -- I've used 7" and longer)

Monofilament Thread

Step One: Unzip your zipper and line up the edge about 1/8" from the edge of the zipper teeth. Don't butt it right against the teeth! Sew all the way across, near the edge of the juice pouch.

Step Two: (This is where you need that excess zipper length!) line up your zipper on the bottom edge of the juice pouch and sew the same way you did in step one, making sure the ends of the zipper match up so it will zip up correctly.


Step Three: Fold your juice pouch in half and tuck the ends of the zipper inside. (This is the end where the zipper tab sits when the zipper is CLOSED.)


Step Four: Sew all the way down the side.


Step Five: Zip it shut! Trim your zipper about 1/2" past the end of the juice pouch. Tuck the ends in the same way you did on the first side, and sew all the way down this side.


Ta-Da!! Super easy! And isn't it cute??
