I already purchased these. What can I buy from Home Depot to sow or attach hooks into these bags?

Sell it and buy two singles? Do you need it to look fancy? Or could you take an IKEA bag and sew it as a liner bag that you can just pull it out and leave both bags permanently attached?
Easiest and probably cheapest option would be to sew buckles on the two “bridge” straps connecting then panniers, then figure out some system to keep each bag attached independently of the other (e.g sew-on or riveted hooks, another set of buckles, etc). The latter feature doesn’t need to be particularly strong, it just needs to hold one bag statically when the other is removed. You’ll want to be more careful with choosing the buckles on the bridges, since those will dictate your panniers’ load capacity.
This solution wouldn’t be that difficult to implement with basic sewing skills (either hand or machine) and supplies bought from your local hardware or craft store
Places that make bags often sell replacement hardware.
