The following link is to handbag hardware that I bought to sew into the Miranda Bag (by Lazy Girl) to bring in the sides for a more taylored look. This is an option I saw somewhere. I DON'T KNOW HOW TO ATTACH THIS!! I bought it from Sew Thankful (online). I thought this site would help but the site must be down. I have tried a google search, but no luck with instructions. http://www.equilter.com/cgi-bin/webc...p_prodid=82124

Either way - if you fashions small strips of fabric for the handles to attach - use those same colors and attach fabric loops (through the hooks of course) on opposite sides and sew into/under your binding around the top of the purse on the inside. I hope that helps ;)

Somehow, maybe the O rings are attached to the side seams, maybe with a loop of fabric. I don't know how the little chains go and then the lobster claws are connected to bring the side seams (close to the top of the bag) toward the center. If I could just see a pic, I think I would be good. !?!?!?!?

I'm not a bag maker, but I don't see how that hardware would have anything to do with the sides. It all just looks like things for keyrings That lobster thing I did have on a corded strap once, it was used to shorten from should length to very short hand legth. I'd love to see how these end up being used.
