Introduction:


A card wallet is an essential accessory for almost everyone. It is a handy item that helps you keep your important cards organized and easily accessible. With the increasing cost of living, everyone is trying to cut down on expenses, and sometimes purchasing a new wallet does not fit into the budget. In such cases, making a homemade card wallet can solve the problem. In this article, we will show you how to make a DIY card wallet at home.


Materials Required:


Here is a list of items you will need to make a card wallet at home.


1. Fabric (preferably canvas or denim)


2. Sewing machine


3. Thread


4. Scissors


5. Ruler


6. Pins


7. Velcro or snap button


Steps to Make a Card Wallet:


Step 1: Cut the fabric


Measure and cut two pieces of fabric that are 6x9 inches. These two pieces will form the front and back of the wallet. Also, cut one piece of fabric that is 6x4 inches. This piece will be used to create a card slot.


Step 2: Fold the pieces


Fold the two large pieces of fabric in half to create a crease in the middle. This crease will help you align the pieces when you start sewing. Next, fold the small piece of fabric in half lengthwise, and sew up one of the short sides to create a pocket. Make sure to leave the other side open because this will be the card slot.


Step 3: Sew the pieces together


Place the small fabric piece on top of one of the large pieces of fabric, with the open part of the pocket facing down. Next, sew the sides and the bottom of the pocket into the larger fabric. Do not sew the top part of the pocket, as this is where the cards will be inserted.


Step 4: Create the card slots


Place the second large piece of fabric on top of the first one, with the right sides facing each other. Pin the two pieces together and sew around three sides of the fabric, while leaving one of the long sides open. Turn the fabric inside out, and you will now have a pocket with two slots.


Step 5: Add a closure


To keep the wallet closed, add a snap button or velcro. Sew one side of the snap button or velcro to the inside of one of the large fabric pieces. Next, sew the other side of the button or velcro to the outside of the other large fabric piece.


Conclusion:


Now that you know how to make a DIY card wallet, you can easily create a simple and practical accessory for yourself or as a gift for someone special. This wallet is easy to make, and the materials required are easily accessible. If you want to experiment with different colors and prints, you can use any fabric of your choice.
