Thanks for sharing. I was hesitant at first to do this coz I dont want to damage the pouch. It was not as easy to make the bar fit inside that small gap but I manage to do it. Im glad I did and it looks like a brand new small purse and im loving it so much. Perfectly fit for my Iphone 7+, card holder, coin pouch and a lipstick and you are ready to go!
Hi Amanda you are a genius. I bought Gm and Pm size in France last week . Got the D ring from Amazon from the link you have given ,bought a vachetta strap for Gm size and a chain for the Pm size tadaaaa,, bags are ready to use. I phone 8 plus fits into both the sizes and x fits into GM size ;when I ordered D rings from Amazon , they send 4 pieces in one packet ? So I managed to fix the D rings into both the sizes without much effort . Thank you so much for your brilliant idea. BTW don’t tell LV about it , they may stop adding that leather attachment to it.LOL
Glad you liked it! 😊 he mini pochette has been difficult to track down so I figured this was the next best thing! And lucky you got the Gm and Pm in France so a wonderful experience and at a lower cost! 😄
How are you finding using the GM as a bag? Did the tabs holdup ok - any signs of the stitches coming lose or tears on the leather tabs? I’m thinking of buying the GM pouch to use as a bag but worried the tabs will tear with use. Thanks
sorry to be offtopic but does any of you know of a method to log back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost the password. I would love any tips you can offer me
@Forrest Brennan i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im in the hacking process atm. Takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
I just bought the d-rings and gold chain. Can not wait for d-rings to come in so I can try this! I travel often and it'll be awesome to have this as a cross body as well. Awesome video! Thank you!!!
Very creative! You should send this idea in to LV! Love it and this pouch is my all time fav it’s hard to believe how much fits in it. I’m never without it.
OMG I was stil dying tring to decide between a mini pochette or the cosmetic case. You have solved my problem! i'm doing with the cosmetic pouch and add my own strap. Can you share your amazon links for the D ring and the strap?
How cool! I actually tried to look little d ring pieces up before this video because I shoved the hooks without the d rings inside the little vachetta loops as my own fix to a handbag on this lol but I was thinking, long term it’s probably not going to be good wear and tear! So I ordered d rings so that I could make it proper and I did the screw on ones too! Great minds think alike!
Hello. ☺️ Just wanna ask. Does it not flip upside down when in use? I mean, with the strap on. Is it comfortable to use as a crossbody bag? I am planning to buy the cosmetique pouch today to do this hack.
Do you think it will break eventually? I really want to transform the cosmetic pouch-but I am so scared of damaging it, especially when wearing it regularly
Such a brilliant idea! I love, love my cosmetic pouch and this is another way to carry it (besides hiding it in my tote). Thanks for sharing! New subber here 😊❤️
Omg I’m buying the pouch 👝🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 yes I was thinking of this to do I love small purses on my daily on to go buy the ones they have are to expensive smh this is only 3 something and fits decent amount yep my nurse purse thank you so much
WOWWWW!!!! What a clever idea!!! I have been trying to figure out what mini bag I am gonna get for my sis for mothers Day. Without breaking the bank, (and she's not the most conscientious with her belongings) because I have to get Mom something too. Obviously purse sized. LoL
Hi! Just wondering if you use this often? What is the wear and tear like on the tabs? I just bought one today to do this but I’m worried that over time the stitching on the tabs will come loose from the weight of the bag? Please let me know! xx
It would need to be a very thin chain to fit in the loops, which may end up breaking from the weight of the bag. The clasps are also not quite the right size to fit on the loops. The nice thing about the d rings is that they can be removed if needed
This is pretty genius! I had already decided to get the pouch in epi, and it looks like the same construction, so I should be able to do the same with the silver colored pieces! Thanks! So cool that it doesn't damage the bag.
I also found these wristlet straps that I might try on it too, once the Drings are in place. smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CZJD5G8/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A68SXT6QN062F&psc=1
Omg I literally bought that chain last week for my pochette accessoires. I already own the cosmetic bag so I’m going to order the D rings. Thanks for sharing this amazing idea.
😭 the D rings that I ordered, the pin I’d too thick and won’t go through as there isn’t really a gap on mine. Do you have any suggestions where I can get some in the UK?
I saw the video and got two pouches one in the gm to do this. Thank you so much. I wanted a bag to put a few stuff in phone, card case, keys pouch, etc and this works great to do grocery run or just to step out quickly. So perfect.
I’m so exited to try this on my new cosmetic pouch can you please give me the complete info we’re you get the D ring ty so much I just subscribe to your chanel
Hi, wondering if you are noticing any wear and tear on the tabs from the weight of the contents when using it as a bag? I’m worried the stitching of the side tabs may come lose of the tabs may tear from use of the pouch as a bag. Thanks
I have not noticed anything as of yet, and I make sure not to overload the pouch. I’ve actually been using my converted toiletry 19 pouch a ton recently.
i love this because the cosmetic case is the perfect size as my catch all...but sometimes i want to just take it to run in the store hands free
I am buying cosmetic pouch instead of mini pochette now.. thank you.. u made my day .lots of love.. keep it up with your good content..
I'm about to do the same:)
I have the same thought as you! It's worth much more 💐
I do theysame
Got mine pochette cosmetique.
im purchasing the LV cosmetic bag JUST to do this. Loves it!
Madame.Apache the GM ? That’s cool
Me too!!!
Chain me up....with cosmetic pouch! Great minibag!💙
This video inspired me to get the cosmetic pouch instead of a mini pochette... and I don’t regret it
Kirrcat 07 yes and wayyyy much room I got the GM and it holds so much
Very nice now I want to buy a new cosmetic bag Yeay
Thanks for sharing. I was hesitant at first to do this coz I dont want to damage the pouch. It was not as easy to make the bar fit inside that small gap but I manage to do it.

luanne desales How were you able to fit the D ring in the small gap on the pouch? I am having trouble doing that myself.

I have the same question ❤ does the GM size holds okay with the strap? I am afraid it will tear up over time? Please share us your experience 😊
Wondering also how the vachetta is holding up?
NOOOOOOO!!!! NOW I NEEED THE COSMETIC POUCH. This Is so cute. I’m literally crying. Lol
Thanks! It's an awesome versatile piece, and "affordable" for the LV world! lol
I’m totally doing this with my Damier Ebene cosmetic bag!!! You’re a genius! Thank you!!!
sorry to be offtopic but does any of you know of a method to log back into an instagram account?

@Forrest Brennan It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thanks so much you saved my account !
@Neil Wilder happy to help xD
Thank you!!! I almost invested in another LV... Something crossbody, in DA, and small for summer. Now I can convert my DA cosmetic pouch. Yay😊
What a fantastic idea!! I have the cosmetic pouch and don’t use it! I am going to order the d rings today! Thank you so much!👜👛♥️
I just bought the d-rings and gold chain. Can not wait for d-rings to come in so I can try this! I travel often and it'll be awesome to have this as a cross body as well. Awesome video! Thank you!!!
Glad you enjoyed it! 😄
im gonna purchase the cosmetic pouch just to do this lol, thanks for this great idea i dont need the mini pochette now lol
Weird comment... but does anyone else love the smell of LV bags😂😂
Not all bags and slgs are smells like leather anymore soem smells like weird chemical
Yes! The smell and the feeling of it. I feel so luxurious every time i look at my LV bag. Money well spent.
Thanks you for sharing your video, it very helpful. I will go buy the cosmetic pouch GM and convert it to a small bag instead by Alma mini.
Bookmarked! this is a much better solution than the mini pochette!
May I have the link to buy the add on side clips ? So awesome video
I just bought the pouch to do this, I have the speedy but sometimes it’s too big to take everywhere. THANK YOU FOR THIS !!!❤️
That is amazing! I have never thought of that. Very crafty way to save some coin
Omg great idea! Now my 7 year old daughter wants this for Christmas.
Very creative! You should send this idea in to LV! Love it and this pouch is my all time fav it’s hard to believe how much fits in it. I’m never without it.
You just saved me $$$ money!! I am so going to do this because it's way too cute!! Thank you for sharing your fabulous idea!! XO
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video! 😄
Omg this is such a good idea! just ordered the D rings to do this
Awesome Idea. You deserve all the praise for being creative. Just did mine with GM. Enjoying the pouch....well I should say crossbody bag now :).
Glad you enjoyed the video! The Gm would be great too and would hold a bit more, a perfect crossbody! 😄
Does the bag flip?
@@appleb2279 It does sometimes, so I usually keep the pouch full and then it doesn't flip. The trick here is to keep the pouch bit heavier side....
Janet James thanks for the info. I’m thinking of getting the GM but I’m a little hesitant coz of its tendency to flip.
OMG I was stil dying tring to decide between a mini pochette or the cosmetic case. You have solved my problem! i'm doing with the cosmetic pouch and add my own strap. Can you share your amazon links for the D ring and the strap?
How cool! I actually tried to look little d ring pieces up before this video because I shoved the hooks without the d rings inside the little vachetta loops as my own fix to a handbag on this lol but I was thinking, long term it’s probably not going to be good wear and tear!

I will be buying this now instead of mini pochette! Thank you! :)
Hope you can make an update video on the wear and tear of this...
I did it on my cosmetic pouch and it’s so cute thanks for the idea
You’re welcome 😊
After this video I got the cosmetic pouch instead of the mini pochette ❤️
Kirrcat 05 🙋🏻♀️
The mini pochette can be very difficult to track down these days! Glad you liked the video! 😄
Thank you for sharing this video and the links, I am excited to try this with mine.
Thank you to share your idea. I am buying cosmetics pouch gm can't wait to transform to a mini bag
Hi 👋🏽 I love your idea so much 😍 Thank you for sharing this 😍. What size is your cosmetic pouch? Thanks. Does it fit iPhone Max? Thanks
I'm curious too
I saw one video a girl fit her 7s plus which is the same size as iPhone 11 pro max inside
i have the same one that i wanna transform into a bag!! thanks for the video
Amazing idea .i picked up both PM&GM size to try your idea
Thank you so much
Glad you liked it! 😄
What an interesting idea! I’ve been thinking about selling mine because I have been using it. This would give it another use m! Thanks for sharing.
Love this idea! Did you have to stretch out the vachetta loops before hand or was the hole already big enough?
I had to stretch them out ever so slightly with the screw driver, but not much!
You are awesome. Im buying this cosmetic pouch on monday!!! Can't wait to use your hack...
So enjoyed the creativiness ftom cosmetic yo handbags
Thanks! I have another one going live Thursday! 😊
This is great. Love the look of it. And so easy.
Winderful idea 😍 May i know where to buy the D ring?
YES!! Perfect for stadium events.
Hello. ☺️ Just wanna ask. Does it not flip upside down when in use? I mean, with the strap on. Is it comfortable to use as a crossbody bag? I am planning to buy the cosmetique pouch today to do this hack.
Thanks for this video because I want to create this for mine and create a cross body
Oh my! This is an amazing idea of yours! Now I am considering to get a cosmetic pouch. ;)
It's an awesome piece! I highly recommend! :D
Omg. I love this... Thanks so much for sharing.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed! :D
Thank you for the video! Does the pouch flip upside down as a bag?
It does sometimes, but I figure since it’s not a known bag style, there’s no right or wrong way to wear it! 😄
Awesome! Never thought about doing this and now I'm excited to try. Thanks!!😍
Awesome idea. Love it. Now I want this pouch now.. Thank you for sharing ❤️
Get it! It's great! haha. an awesome piece and easy to track down compared to other LV items!
Super great idea. Thank you
Thanks!
Now I wish I had kept my pouch. TFS.
Do you think it will break eventually? I really want to transform the cosmetic pouch-but I am so scared of damaging it, especially when wearing it regularly

Glad you liked it! It’s a super versatile item, and can be a perfect catch all in a larger bag too!
WOWWWW!!!! What a clever idea!!! I have been trying to figure out what mini bag I am gonna get for my sis for mothers Day. Without breaking the bank, (and she's not the most conscientious with her belongings) because I have to get Mom something too. Obviously purse sized. LoL
Can I use a 3/8 size D ring instead of the 5/8? they're all out on amazon. :(
The 3/8 may be too small, the 5/8 just fits around the leather loops
First of all thank you 😀!
My question is, where can I buy the vachetta holder?
I have the new Game On Cosmetic Pouch. Will those D Rings above fit? Thanks.
You hav saved my life !! I love this ! But i cant find the D rings in gold
Me either :(
what an awesome tip. thanks for sharing this!
What an awesome idea! Now you have me sold on wanting to get the cosmetic pouch! Thanks for sharing!

OMG love this video great idea
Thank you for doing this hack! I just did mines yesterday and I love it!
Glad to hear you liked it! Enjoy your new “bag”! 😄

It would need to be a very thin chain to fit in the loops, which may end up breaking from the weight of the bag. The clasps are also not quite the right size to fit on the loops. The nice thing about the d rings is that they can be removed if needed

Where do you get d rings?
@@lettyvaldez5514 I didn't bother altering this but you can find D rings on Amazon, Home Depot etc.
@@lettyvaldez5514 she has links in her description, you can see if they're still valid.
Lovely! 😘 I am going to get the Pouch now ^^
Great video! Awesome idea.
Super cute ❤️
Great idea thanks for sharing 💕
how long is the the gold chain ?
Wow those vacheta loops were made for those D rings... I guess LV decided to be cheap on us and not give us the whole package. 😂
Hi what size d rings did u use , I have just ordered my cosmetics pouch 😀
Great idea thank you for sharing
Glad you liked it! :)
INGENIOUS!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Is there any other d rings you would recommend? The ones you used are no longer available in gold
Does it sit firmly on the body or swinging to much up and down please?
😭 the D rings that I ordered, the pin I’d too thick and won’t go through as there isn’t really a gap on mine. Do you have any suggestions where I can get some in the UK?
Nice I love it
Wow you re so creative. I m, Thinking of putting strap on my Chanel o pouch, but it doesn't have leather hole 😏😏😏
That is So Smart! Bravo ...
I'm excited!!!
Cute bag!
Amazing thank you!! One question: what is the length of the chain? In cm
Clever idea!
What an awesome idea. It looks really nice. 🤗🤗🤗
Thank you! I'm loving the versatility even more now!
AmandaRaeRevue You're making me want to purchase one lol Would love to see a video of you styling it. 🤗🤗
