To make the bag: I traced a purse I already owned on white paper and used it as a pattern. (Basically 4 squares of black+2 squares of batting=a layer of fabric, batting, fabric, fabric, batting, and fabric. In that order.) Hem the top of the squares then sew the squares together (bag should be inside out). Turn it right side out and you're done!
For the rest: I found a stencil online of a Marilyn Monroe looking person. Printed it. Cut out the picture and placed it on my bag. Then sprayed it with fabric paint from Hobby Lobby. I added a magnetic clasp, also from HL, and hot glued a button over it.
Very cute and simple and not $45! :)
