Follow the pics below to fix the sides. It must come out in V shape. The down side can be folded or cut out.
Any questions, pls ask

Now, we'll fix magnet button on the flap. Mine is V, so I'll just fix it right at the tip. If u're having round, straight or curved flap, mark the centre first b4 fixing the magnet button.
U'll notice where I marked on the flap, I used blade to cut it right to the back so that the button can enter. Use the stopper that comes with it to close at the back.

If you want chain, now's the time to do do. Between the flap and the back, mark a point on both edge, very close to d edge. Make a small hole. The first pic is rivet n d 2nd is chain hook. Both works 2geda.

Insert the rivet(long one) into the hole from the back, put the chain hook, use d other pair of the rivet to cover. Hammer it very well. Follow pic below

If u're using a plain fabric, you should consider putting a little design on the flap. This time, it's on the marco u'll be putting it. Mark wherever u want the design/logo to be, use blade to pierce it, fix right from the front, bend at the back. Follow pics below

We're almost done. Apply gum on the board, all the way from flap to the back. Wait to dry, glue it to the marco. Make sure it is well placed, at the centre n d spaces left on both sides are the same. Also, be sure the remaing part on board (in this case:Front) will be enough for the front of the purse

Place d 2nd magnet button on the one u fixed on d flap. Close up the purse as if u're done. Add a lil pressure on the magnet button. When u open, u'll see a mark on the front of the marco. Use blade to pierce 'em. Fix the magnet button. See pics below

Apply gum to the board, glue 2geda with the marco. Fix chain n ...
Done.
Hurray
Rock ur purse.
NB: apply gum on areas around the edges that are open. If u have any form of stain, put kerosene on a small fabric n clean with it.

Different designs you can have. Some have logo,decorative pins, bow..on their flaps

It seems people are not interested in this anymore. Maybe this thread should be closed

Nice tutorials with simple instructions. I will get my material next week. I wish I can attend the training in Lagos. But I am in Abuja. The thread is still useful, there is no need to close it. There are several threads on Nairaland serving the same purpose but the methods and instructions are different. Thanks to the originator of this thread.

Please let the training continue

The training will continue.
