The number of decorative cosmetics increases year by year: separate jars with brightening, darkening, correcting means of various colors appear. Now the road is not enough to take only powder, lipstick and mascara, in the cosmetic of modern women should fit all sorts of concealers, proofreaders, masking agents, tonal base - just can not list. The size of the cosmetic bag should be appropriate. In addition, after traveling, the cosmetic bag often requires replacement: the concealer leaks, the lock is closed in a hurry with stained fingers, the lipstick flows and leaves marks on the inside, the fabric absorbed sand and dust. For those who are constantly on the road, the best solution is not to spend money on buying a new cosmetic bag, but to sew it yourself.
How to sew a cosmetic bag?
In order to sew a cosmetic bag yourself, you do not need to finish the cutter's courses. Do not always need a sewing machine. For example, a cosmetic bag made of fabric created by felting can be sewn by hand deliberately rough, decorative seams. Let's consider some variants how to make a beautician with your own hands.
Classic version
For such a cosmetic bag you will need:
- fabric for the face of the cosmetic bag;
- fabric for the wrong side (if the material for the front fabric is tight, you can not use additional fabric for the lining);
- a zipper or a button.
The simplest pattern of the cosmetic bag involves a template in the form of two rectangles. Such a pattern can be changed as you like: add a bottom and side wedges, change the shape of the sides of the cosmetic bag.
The main rule: the outer (facial) part of the cosmetic bag is stitched inside, and the inner (that is, the lining) - seams out.
Beautiful look beauticians from denim, with wedge-shaped inserts of colored patterned fabrics. To make such a cosmetic bag, old jeans can go.
Variant "Chest"
Very popular are cosmetic bags, primarily because of their practicality. Of course, the size of such a cosmetic bag can not be called a miniature, but at the capacity it is not inferior to a small bag.
Beautician-chest is of several types: vertical cylindrical shape (upper part with a zipper), volumetric "with ears" (cubic shape with zip-valve or zipper), cylindrical horizontal (closed with a zipper or a valve).
Vertical cosmetic bag is not very convenient: the desired object can be at the very bottom. So let's look at how to make a cylindrical horizontal makeup box with your own hands. This option will not be quite ordinary: the cosmetic bag is fully laid out, inside it consists of several compartments with bags, and in assembled form it looks like an ordinary chest.
- For the front side a thick fabric is selected, for example, curtain or linen, suede imitation is also suitable. For lining fabric will be made internal compartments, bags, so it is better to choose a one-color version. To keep the chest holding the mold, a thin layer of fleece or sintepon is placed between the lining and the facial tissue.
- Facial, lining fabric and fleece are cut out according to one scheme (in our case it is a rectangle with sides of length 38/19 cm or 40/20 cm) and stitched together.
- By the facial fabric, a beika is attached along the contour of the product (it is not necessary to spend it for the time being).
- From the lining cloth bags (not more than three) are sewn, with the parameters 38/24 cm. At the top of the pouches, the hem for the kulis is stitched (so that the pouches are tightened onto the lace).
- The corners of the pouches are attached with needles to the edges of the purse side of the cosmetic bag. It is also necessary to determine the place of attachment of the pouches, so that in the end there is room for the valve of the product.
- Now turn the product over and squirt the bake. Together with the tape, the edges of the pouches are also stitched, thus fixing themselves in the cosmetic bag. The edges of the pouches that protrude beyond the boundaries are cut off, the bake is turned and sewn again, already from the wrong side, hiding the trimmed ponytails of the pouches.
- The last step is to decide how to decorate the cosmetic bag. It is best to look at the handbag-chest handle, made of three layers (only not the face-fleece-purl cloth, and the facial tissue-fleece-facial tissue).
How to sew a cosmetic bag made of leather?
For kosmetichki suitable only soft skin. A leather version can be sewn without a lining, except for the make-up bag. The chest will look great if a soft and very thin leather for gloves is chosen as a lining. Advantages of the skin: wear resistance and aesthetic qualities.
