Make YOUR fav style of the Bohemian Dreams Bag! All of these options are included in the pattern.

Features of each option listed below:

1. “Boho Buckle” (Loop and Tassel) closure. I wanted a buckle, but didn’t have one, so I came up with this crazy idea! This long, brushed tassel with beads is speaking my language. Simply pull the tassel through the loop to close. I think it’s my fav.

2. Button closure. Love this vibe. I came up with a quick way to make a flat vintage button a lot easier to hook onto. Feathers and a wooden bead finish it off.

3. Zipper closure - but not just any old zipper - this one has a brushed tassel with wooden beads. It’s easy to grab and gives the bag a little something extra. Love the colors and textures.

4 & 5. The lining is what you see inside, but beneath it, is the perfect solution for reinforcement. This is optional of course, but the materials needed to do these steps will cost under $5 and are easy to find. The bag will still be cute without it, but if you want it to hold it’s true shape, this is the way to go.

The goal was to create options with materials that are easy to find. It definitely took some ingenuity, but here we are.
