Ipod Speaker Beach Bag

What you need:
1. Straw beach bag, one with a lining works best.
Here's one I found at target

2. Portable battery powered light-weight ipod speakers
These I found at target too, but any will do

3. Velcro- the kind that attaches to fabric works best.

4. Tulle or other Mesh fabric

5. Lots of Hot glue

1. Measure where ipod speaker will sit when inside the bag. Mark the center of the circle to be cut. If there is a lining to the bag, cut through lining at the seam so that the speaker sits against the side of the bag.

2. Glue cardboard circle on the inside of the bag around where the hole will be cut to ensure basketweave does not unravel.


3. Cut an X through the center of the hole.

4. Push the straw back through the inside and glue to cardboard cutout.




5. Glue another cardboard cut out on top of the straw.


6. Glue mesh fabric on the inside of bag to cover the hole.

7. Attach velcro to ipod speaker and side of bag.



8. Do the same on the opposite side of the bag. If the bag has a lining you can run the cord underneath so it won't get caught up in your stuff.

9. Once both speakers are attached sew up both sides of the lining. leave a section open on the bottom of each side (about the size of the speaker).

10. Using an iron attach the velcro to the open sections of the lining. This will allow you to access the power switch on the speakers as well as the ability to change the batteries.


11. If the bag has a pocket, cut a small hole in the corner, just big enough to put the speaker cord through that attaches to the ipod.

12. All done.
