Accessory Options

The possibilities are really endless when it comes to what you could add to this piece to make it your own! My two favorite ways to add style are either a tassel or fringe detail!

 

To add fringe:

*Cut 8, 12-inch pieces of yarn

*Fold wine tote in half to where it is laying flat

*Take one yarn piece, fold it in half and thread through the desired placement of fringe, pull ends through to make a knot

*Repeat until front half is covered in fringe

 

To add tassel:

*Cut several 12-inch pieces of yarn (I used around 6-7)

*Hold pieces together and fold them in half.

*Cut extra-long piece of yarn

*Wrap long piece around the top of the folded pieces to make a “bulb” at the top and “fringe” on the bottom

*Tie knot to secure the tassel shape

*Use tied ends to attach to the wine bag in the desired spot by making a knot.

*Tuck tied ends on the inside of tote bag
