use scissors to cut the umbrella fabric along the pink dotted line,

then cut two rectangular strips of fabric of the same size and length from the umbrella fabric.

Step three:Sew the cut pieces into a bag shape,

finally sew on the two straps and you can take it out on your back!

Hook

The umbrella's handle is solid in texture,

and its shape is very suitable for making a hook,

very convenient for hanging clothes and hanging items.

Umbrella lamp

Flip the umbrella shaft and handle to the back of the umbrella,

and it becomes a unique pendant lamp~

Umbrellas with transparent fabric are better suited as lampshades for pendant lamps,

make it a good choice for a pet bed too.
