You won't need too much for this one! Wait for your family to finish a carton of juice or milk, then swipe it. You'll also need some scrap material. We used two different kinds to mix it up: a scissors (promise to get an adult's permission for this one!), some glue, a hole punch and two paper-fasteners.

First cut the top off your carton - don't throw it away, you'll need it later. Where you cut depends on how big you want your bag to be. It's totally up to you, just make sure it's definitely empty before you start - you don't want any spills ;) Once you've done that, give the part you'll use for your bag a wipe with a wet cloth and then dry it.

Now it's time to give it a brand new look. Take a piece of cloth that's a bit longer and wider than your carton. We've chosen blue and white polka dots because we think its pretty, but you can use whatever pattern or color you want. You could even take some plain material and draw on some nice pictures on there. Glue the cloth onto the carton, leaving a bit of material on either end.

You're halfway there - yey! Just smear some glue inside the top of the carton and stick down the cloth that's still poking up.

Turn the carton upside down and glue down the material as shown in the photo above. It's kind of like wrapping a gift!

It's time to use the top of the carton that you didn't throw away to make a handle for your super cute bag. Cut out a long strip from the carton top ...

... and lay it on your second piece of material. We've gone with something flowery. Cut along the strip of carton but make sure to leave enough material to cover it all when you're done.

Once everything is dry, punch a hole on either end of the handle. Mind your fingers now ;)

Then make a hole on each side of the bag with a scissors. Be careful though. Maybe even ask an adult to help or supervise.

Attach the handle to the bag with the paper fasteners - easy peasy.

And ... ta-da! You've got your own homemade and super-stylish bag that's ready to hold all your treasures.
