How to Make a Capri Sun Coin Purse Without Sewing
A Capri Sun is a flavored juice in a soft foil pouch. As anyone with young children can tell you, it is possible to amass an extremely large number of these pouches in a relatively small amount of time. One of the popular crafts with the do-it-yourself crowd is to recycle Capri Sun pouches into purses and wallets.
