How to make a bag handle?

Looking for anoriginal shoulder strap for your bag? Find out in this tutorial how to make a suede and macraméhandle for your bag. Combining elegance and bohemian style, this handle will add a trendy and unique touch to your summer bag. Whether you're into casual style or want to add a bohemian touch to your outfit, this bag handle will fit perfectly with your personal style.

Start by sewing your suede lace, then make your macramé braided cord to obtain this pretty handle. This tutorial is easy enough for beginners. What's more, you can get this handbag handle for less than €20. As you can see, we've designed it for a shoulder bag. However, its length is adjustable, so you can choose the length that suits you best. It's up to you to decide whether you want to shorten or lengthen the suede or macramé part. For the suede lace, we've opted for the color of summer: orange! But adapt this creation to your taste by choosing your color from among our suedette laces on the site.
