- Welcome to Day 4 of 12 Days of Last Minute DIY Gifts! In this sewing tutorial I teach you how to make a super quick and beginner friendly snap up caddy. You only need two small pieces of two different fabrics and some foam interfacing for the body. For the snap closures on the corners I will use plastic snaps and my setting kit.

Hello there! I'm relearning how to sew after 30 years and found your channel after searching for exactly this kind of project. They turned out great! Thanks for your instructions.
I just did this and now I want to make a lot more! Your explanation of the female/male parts was a lot clearer than what came with the pliers. Thank you for that!
It's been three years and I am still making them. I just made another one as a thread catcher for my spare machine that I take to sewing guild and retreats. I also have one for my glasses and nose spray beside my bed when I go away. I have another one in the lounge...... it is not the end yet...
The best teacher i have ever seen
I always go to your videos when I need to give a Thank You gift.
What a great way to use up those foam scraps and get organized at the same time! Thank you Vanessa!!!
Just made my fabric basket....so cute! Can't wait to give for Christmas gifts! You rock Crafty Gemini!
You explain the steps so well. Thank you for sharing this project.
I love these (make them in fabric and leather) - they also make great little organizers as well as travel trays. This tutorial is great - thanks for sharing!
Thank you! Turned out beautifully...first time I have inserted plastic snaps!!
OMG! You are the BEST teacher! What a God send you are! Thank you!
Beautiful! You make sewing look so easy! You are such a nice person! Thank you for everything you do! 😀
I made one for my d-i-l and tried it out myself this weekend. She thinks it’s just right for her jewelry but I’m going to make more an inch longer so my glasses will fit. Making a bunch for gifts. Thanks Vanessa!
Thank you so much. It is perfect for my friends with camper van. I made it little bigger for bread basket. Your videos very easy to follow. Love it.
You're an excellent teacher...love watching your little tutorials!

I just tried one and it is so cute! I'm going to make a few dozen and give them out as random gifts on my upcoming road trip. Thanks!
ANOTHER Gold Medal Project......Great job Ms Vanessa....great stocking stuffer too!!!
Thank so much!
Loved this project. Just made one. You are a great teacher!
I'm impressed! Fast, simple and inexpensive gift idea! I've saved every one of your 12 days of Christmas so far and am sure I'll be saving the rest. I love your style of teaching. Thank you and Merry Christmas !
Really love to watch this how useful work you have done.
Great idea and made one as soon as I watched, now subscribed - thank you
Omg this is awesome ! I love it ! My mom will love it too!
I just love your teaching.
Like doing this with the snaps. Makes it so much easier.
Awesome videos! I can't wait to start making the microwaveable bowls and caddy's,
Amazing video from an amazing teacher indeed.👍
Beautiful, love it.
Very well done. I was looking for an easy way to make one of these. I like packing one when I travel. It is a handy little basket for keys and jewelry .
I love you Vanessa (CraftyGemini) wonderful instructor you make it so much fun 🥰
This is just what I was looking for. I'll make it a bit larger for a toast/bagel basket at the breakfast table. The snaps will make it easy to store.
Love this project!
I love that you give the measurements thank you
you always come out with super cool projects.
I need several of those on my sewing table. Thanks Vanessa :)
Love your teaching style. Love this little project. I would love to see close up of parts of a snap.
Thanks much I really enjoyed it .will definitely try them
I absolutely loved this video and idea!!! Totally an awesome gift idea! Thx for posting. God Bless =)
I love it.
Love it
Great project! 💚
Love it , I made the originals ones you had , I will be making these! Your an awesome teacher and thank you much for what you do.: )
OMG! AWESOME!😊
Great videos and clear instructions. Could you please explain why you use the foam stabilizer instead of some kind of batting?
Love it. I definitely want to make these.
Glad to hear it! Happy sewing!
I love your tutorial and can't wait to make one just need one tool. What is the name of the tool you used to press the snaps?
I like your tutorials
I absolutely love this project and would love to make one! Can the In-R-Foam plus be used to make this as well. I'm having difficulty try to figure out the difference between that and the one you used in the video
Wow super
Hi Vanessa
from Lisbon - Portugal
I Enjoy and learn so much with you.
next thursday i'm Having the christmas' dinner and the "secret friend" with my Craft group and I want to do this cute box but would Like to know if I can use felt instead of the lining and the foam.
Have a nice week
xoxo
beautiful fabric
Thanks! This is from my Dominicana Fabric collection.
Very cool Vanessa!!! Thanks Hun!! :):):):):)
Such a cute little project ! I'd love to know if you think this would be sturdy enough if it were enlarged to be a bread basket (for serving bread or rolls on the dinner table)? How would I adjust the snap placement if I tried to enlarge?
When I am making caddies or baskets like this for myself I use those foamie squares. They hold up just as well. They come in various sizes and cost a lot less . For gifts, I use what is suggested.
Thank you for adding this comment, Patriot. I was scrolling thru the comments looking for this exact answer! I'm going to whip some together today. Thanks again,
ready cute DIY
Waiting for some more videos
Hi Vanessa! I’m a new subscriber and I’m in love 😍 with your channel, I have been crocheting must of my life but now I’m venturing into sewing and you are a great teacher, I already made a few things from your tutorials and this in particular came out super cute, I just have a question in how to make this in a bigger size? I’m assuming just add more inches but I’m not sure about the snap buttons and how to position them, thank you so much you’re great!!!
God bless you
I will be putting my wonderclips in.
could you use a serger to sew the pieces together or use a satin edge seam?
Cute
Hi! Great video! Quick question: is this machine washable? (With the foam and all?
What kind of foam is this? I'm not sure where to get this.
I don't have this type interfacing. Would something like Pellon SF101 on both the lining and the outside fabric be sturdy enough? Any other suggestions?
Great tutorial. I’d like to make a bigger one. Would you give me fabric and foam sizes so I can do that. I’m rubbish at math,
Would it be easier to just stitch it to one wrong side before putting pretty sides together then turn out ?
Could you use Velcro instead of snaps?
Where can I get the snaps?
Hi .. could someone tell me what kind of foam insert was used ?
Can anyone tell me why the fabric on the inside of the caddy is wrinkled when the snaps are inserted?
I love this idea! I have limited space so the ability to unsnap is great! Too bad I don’t have any foam 😂😭
@thecraftygemini Hi Vanessa, When installing the snaps, what if you accidentally install the snaps backwards. Are they easily removed to reverse in the correct direction?
Aurora Darling there are videos to tell you how but it’s pretty easy. I’ve done it, too. . . . Christmas Eve I was finishing a last minute gift and put the snap in the wrong place.
Using the snap pliers, squeeze the snap sideways. You have to break it. Then just replace it. I hope this helps you.
Hey Vanessa, what do you use to mark your fabric with? I used Frixion until I had ghost marks on the fabric.
Tailor's chalk, chalk marker, or water soluble marker. I still use Frixion sometimes but not on dark fabrics. Those will leave ghost marks for me when i press them away.
Where can I purchase the plastic snaps I have bunches of the old metal type? Have you ever heard of a Dice tray....made the same way but a bit bigger.... It is to be used when playing games with dice...you throw the dice in the tray....so they don't end up on the floor....My grand kids need one...The one I saw uses the plastic fasteners
Trayne1837 KAMsnaps.com I get mine there.
You could use metal snaps for this project. I have purchased plastic snaps at Joanns and Hobby Lobby. They do need a special applicator
Have you tried this with the fusible foam? I’m just wondering if that would keep the fabric smoother and not pucker up a bit when snapped? Thanks Vanessa...love the snaps idea!
Yup! The black and white be was fused and works fine with less puckering. Just be sure to fuse it centered to one side so it doesn’t peel off on you when you’re turning it inside out. Happy sewing!
TheCraftyGemini I was thinking of inserting it the same as your video and then iron/fuse it at the end before top stitching. I’m excited that I now have something I can make quickly for handmade gifts and these can easily be mailed 🎅🏽
Sure. That should work fine.
KathieMW28 thanks for posting this. I just found fusible foam in my stash.
Can these be microwaved?
Do you have a website?
yes. craftygemini.com
money change key use it for
Sometimes my snaps don't snap or close properly. 😫
