Lacy Little Bag

For the past two weeks, I have been trying to make this adorable lace lamp.  Unfortunately, the lamp didn't hold it's shape after I popped the balloon inside of it.  I spent so much time trying to make the lamp, and because I didn't want the adorable lace to go to waste, I made a little makeup bag out of it.  It worked perfectly because the mod podge I used to previously make the lamp turned the lace hard and a little stiff, almost like oilcloth.  I cut up the lamp and made a bag out of it.  If you want to make the same bag, here is a link to the instructions.
