Upcycling a hollowed-out PS3 shell into a sewn fashion piece — looking for ideas

| have a hollowed-out PS3 Fat shell that I’d like to upcycle primarily through sewing and textile work rather than just turning it into a display piece. I have black, brown, and beige-colored faux leather available, along with sewing supplies. My idea is to first cut all the leftover plastic on top using a dremel so I can safely work fabric and leather inside it, then use the shell as something creative. Some ideas I’ve been thinking about:
I’m not really sure where to take it yet, so I’d love some sewing-focused ideas. What would you make if you had this weird plastic shell and a few pieces of faux leather? I’m especially interested in ideas involving patterns, panels, stitching, padding, straps, closures, or ways of attaching the fabric/leather to the shell. [link] [comments] |
