project 2:Postal Presents

Poster:

This is the first time making bag, i call it sue's folding bag, maybe i should call it "compartment storage" because it does looks like a bag.

This storage can be fold in to an A4 envelop, the size smaller than A4, dark blue color( i don't know why the image that i post up alway changed color by the computer). This is a great gift for a friend, mostly for a girl. this storage you can hanging to the wall, you can put any small things that you want such as make up stuff, is easy to store, it can fold up if you don't want to use it, this storage is not heavy at all, when you fold it up the design looks like an hand bag, small, easy carry and smart.
