Make your Kelly handbag


The Kelly bag is so named after the actress Grace Kelly, when in 1956, the then Princess of Monaco used one of her two favorite Hermès bags to shield her pregnancy from the paparazzi.

Make this Hermès Kelly Bag from two sheets of card stock. Use it as a gift bag for a small present for a special friend. Personalize it any way you want. Paint it, print it on colored stock, or add your own custom elements. Let your creativity go wild.

This craft project is not for the faint of heart. It looks pretty intricate and I have not actually tried to make this bag. Maybe you should use plain old inkjet paper for your first one because that would be much easier to fold.

Anyway, here it is. DOWNLOAD HERE!
Note: This is no longer available on the Hermès site, but luckily I found someone who saved it to their site. We should all thank

  1. Thanks for some trivia about the Kelly handbag at the beginning. I wouldn't have known the history of the Kelly handbag. Thanks for sharing!
