DIY Lipstick Sunglasses Case with Felt

DIY Lipstick Sunglasses Case | Club Crafted

DIY Lipstick Sunglasses Case | Club CraftedI’m developing quite the sunglasses collection – these cat eye heart sunnies from Hello Holiday are my current favorites! To keep them protected in my mess of a purse, I needed a sunglasses case so that I wouldn’t scratch the lenses, and it seemed best to make one myself (duh). This easy-to-sew sunglasses case is made with felt and looks like one of the items you’d usually find at the bottom of my purse…a tube of lipstick! This lipstick sunglasses case has practically no sewing involved and is decorated with felt pieces glued in place so that it will hold up in your bag or your car. Make one in about 15 minutes and slip in a pair of sunnies for a cute but simple sunglasses case!

You could even hand sew it if you don’t have a sewing machine because it’s such a small section of fabric! You do you, girl.

I was able to make this project using supplies I already had in the house, but felt is extremely inexpensive to purchase by the sheet at your local craft store, so overall it will be a cheap DIY! Make one for yourself or as a gift for your gal pal who needs to protect her cute sunnies.

Step 5: Trim a piece of pink felt to the same width as they sunglasses case. Along the top piece, cut a curve to make the top of the “lipstick.” 

Step 6: Cut another piece of pink felt in an ovular shape to create the angle of the lipstick.

Step 8: Lastly, trim off the top of the black sunglasses case so that it curves with lipstick. DIY Lipstick Sunglasses Case | Club CraftedDIY Lipstick Sunglasses Case | Club CraftedSlip a pair of sunglasses inside to protect them in your bag or your car so the lenses don’t scratch.
