Ironically, I'm making this purse because my current purse IS too heavy. I keep making this one heavier. I decided on the plexiglass because I want to be able to throw it in the washer, and the rubber feet to try and keep the fabric away from the shopping cart.
I decided to make the pockets custom because every purse I've found in the stores has too short pockets on the inside and everything falls out of them.
The rivets we attempted to use did not work so hubby bought some tiny bolts this morning (more weight)
I also sewed long cross body padded straps (more weight) since I have neck issues.
I'm beginning to think it might be a learning project and not something I'll be able to use as intended.
