Absolutely brilliant Wendy! I bought an large handbag for my forthcoming trip overseas and then found it to be a pain ... one side pocket and no more compartments. I came across umpteen diy purse organizer tutorials. Nothing thrifty about them.. need to be a great seamstress too.. then head to the fabric store... to hell with that .. thought thrifty me. I looked at your tutorial and was a bit confused.. then today my sturdy plastic bag which held 10lbs of wheat flour was finally done... I dusted it out .. cleaned it well and in about 30 minutes ... voila I had a purse organizer!! Exactly using your technique... I agree that it's easier to show than actually explain in words. Truly a brilliant idea ... I've now got pockets for tickets passport, extra virus masks, Clorox wipes for tray table on board; sun glasses.. my mouth guard container... i made side loops and anchored it to the key hooks already on the side of my handbag. I was even able to machine sew through the heavy plastic.. soooo thrilled! Here's a tip for you...When we had our carpet removed and hard wood put it... I found the carpet foam underlay in perfect condition.. I have rolls and rolls of it. I used some to make a purse organizer for another big handbag.. couldn't sew through that. Staples worked well. Holds up perfectly .. more like molded foam.. Holds water bottle straight up.. and lots of other stuff . I also use the carpet underlay to stuff a sagging couch cushion which has zippers.. Holds up amazingly well... and it was saved from going into the trash!
This is so very clever and useful. I bought a purse organizer with 9 pockets and a zipper compartment in the middle to use for my many electronics things. Back-up hard drives, their cables, adapters, iPod, power blocks, thumb drives, headphones, ear buds. You know. All that stuff that you have to have, and just can't be bothered looking for in multiple places. Now, I can split it into two groups: computer, and phones. Yes, I have three, one of which is only for games, not hooked up. One is my hotspot, and the other is for actually using as a phone. lol I never throw anything away until it's dead and unrepairable. I'm adding this to my list of sewing projects for spring. Thank you for sharing!
I’ve bought ready-made versions with a zipper that just gets in the way. Yours is my next project and I’ll find a home for the troublesome one I’ve been trying to use! Thank you
As always, I am glued to your video. This is beyond smart! Purse organizers are so expensive and everyone have these reusable bags at home they don’t use. I am definitely gonna try this 😃👍🏼
I have so many of those cloth type bags that I keep but never know what to do with. This is such a great idea and easy enough that I should be able to do it! Love it, Wendy! 😀 Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!💜
Thanks, Alicia! I had the same issue with those bags! That's why I started using them as just material for crafting and cleaning around the house. They can be pretty useful actually and the price is right 😂 I hope you're having a great weekend too, Alicia :)
That's how I feel about you and how you make money with all your side hustling, Q! Not to sound weird or anything, but I think of you when I am taking walks while looking for change on the ground, or when I see recyclables. I have yet to see a charity box, but next time I see one I'm going to just drop money in sans taking the candy cuz I don't need candy 😂
I LOVE this idea! I just made myself one out of a bag I bought sentimentally in London (where I am from, but I live in the US) at Whole Foods. Unfortunately the bag got a tear in the side which made me sad, but I have just given new life to the bag by making one of these out of the front and back of the bag - and that makes me sooooo happy! I love all your frugal ideas :). Thanks Wendy! 💕
I have a new small cross body purse and the center section has two open spaces that things can fall out of. I'm going to make one of these to make that section secure. Thank you!
I hope it works out for those open spaces, Martha! I haven't had experience with that before and am curious to know how it turns out if you do try it. Thank you for watching! :)
Thank you! This means so much to me!!! It's comments like yours that keep me creating when I have hard days. So please know you have changed the way of my life too! 💕
Thank you! I may use this for small gifts at Christmas and place other small gifts in the pockets. Every woman in my family has an overstuffed, unorganized purse, lol. This is perfect for us!
Such useful information, thank you.I wonder whether you would like to share your skin care and beauty routine, which products you use and how often you shop for those items? Love your channel, so inspiring.Much love and have a great weekend!💖🌼🌼🌼
That is a great video idea, thank you! I have one that touches on this a bit if you're interested - th-cam.com/video/FWDsZQK-59k/w-d-xo.html. I'll add it to my list to make a dedicated one, as I do use some other products also. Thank you for your very kind and encouraging words, and I hope you have a great weekend as well! 😃
You are so amazing at this spatial explanations, Wendy! I also loved the precision of your potstickers video! Do you have an engineering or architecture background? Very interesting video. Thank you!
Thank you, Melissa! I do have a science background and I'm glad you liked the potsticker video. You've inspired to branch out to growing items in a pot. Thank you for all your kind words and support! I hope you're having a great weekend!
Another great video that is both useful and resourceful. I would love to know where you purchase your printer inks because obviously there are some scams out there so it would be nice to know where you can get ink for the money
Thank you very much! We buy the printer ink from amazon by searching the printer’s model number and we read reviews and fakespot to try to find reputable sources. I hope this helps!
🤣 how funny, Deedee! I’ve spent years trying not to sound like me but I’ve come to accept it and be at peace with it. Thank you for your very kind words. I’m sure you have a lovely voice as well!! 💕
I'll do my best to answer any questions you might have, A! If you email me, I'll see the message more prominently - seewendyyt@gmail.com. Thank you for your kind words and for watching 😃

I've just watched 5 diy-handbag-organiser videos. This is the simplest, neatest, and gives the most pockets! Thanks!

I love these types of videos, reuse and upcycle. Love it!
Wow! You're a genius! Thanks for sharing this!!
I'm so happy you liked it. I hope it can come in handy for you! :)
You amaze me! I never would have thought to make that and I sew! 😍😍
Neat, I'm glad to introduce it to you and I hope you can make one! :)
This is very useful and convenient! 👍
Creative, practical and Functional. I will be trying this!
Vivian Hamilton - I hope you get to try it and that it works well for you! :)

That's brilliant! Thank you. In bigger bags or bagpacks I use old handbags, that have many pockets, as organizers.
You're very welcome! I like your reuse of old handbags in larger bags as an organizer too. Great reuse of an item! 🙌
Omg Wendy you're a resourceful goddess!!! Very cool 😁👌

So awesome! I love that you were able to give a sentimental item a new useful life! I’m so happy for you too!! Thank you for sharing 💕
Having a sewing machine makes life so easy. I miss mine. But this idea is amazing Wendy. Love the way you put these bags to great use.
It does, Veronica! What happened to your machine?
@@TheFrugalMinimalist it's in India 😣 could not carry it to Melbourne

I like this because you are not digging around your purse to find stuff
Me too it’s really helpful, Money mom 💕
Can you teach me how to talk like you!🥰such a pleasant voice. You teach very well.
🤣 how funny, Deedee! I’ve spent years trying not to sound like me but I’ve come to accept it and be at peace with it. Thank you for your very kind words. I’m sure you have a lovely voice as well!! 💕
I never thought about reducing the size of the shopping bag to fit better in my purse!!! Boy, am I slow or what!!?? Lol!!!
Way to confusing to me. But, it looks nice.
