Default converting a portfolio into a backpack

Recently my daughter decided to get rid of her leather portfolio that she carried her laptop in.
It is in great shape, except for the handles, and perfect for what I would like for my laptop.
Problem is, I would prefer it be a backpack. I am attaching a pic similar to what she gave me.
Any ideas how to redo the straps so it could be a backpack?
I thought of making a "harness" around both sides, to strap on, which run through the metal rings that hold the shoulder strap - but, how to make it nice looking?
Thanks for the input.
