Trifecta Zip Bags – 6 different sized bags (3 each for 2 different internal wire frame widths). Create gorgeous, toiletry, makeup, pencil or essential oils bags using our smaller sizes, & even use the larger size as a handbag.

Instructions are provided to put the straps on the largest size of each set, but why not add them to all! Suitable for an advanced beginner.

These bags have an “A Frame” shape, wide at the bottom and tapering in at the top. Each bag opens wide, has a structured top shape & includes 2 internal slip pockets.
