This money purse will make a great little gift to make for the bride and bridal party to carry what they need to have on hand like lipstick,mints and rollerball perfume or to you can even make them to put some bridesmaid gifts in them. These are so easy and fast to make and you can even change the size. Add some lace or bows to make each one different. Good tutorial to follow.
