Frankenstein purses!!!

I am giving old purses a new life— and purpose! These are creations I have made using pieces of two purses— creating unique looks that you can make too!!! Below are small descriptions of each——

Pic 1: Learned something from Valentino—- your purses have dirty insides!

Pic 2: Steam punk belt/tie thingy from purse— I added gold grommets, and ribbon for closure. It can be worn 100 different ways — the ribbon is very long!

Pic 3: Bustle purse skirt! Back view. Made from handle of a purse— which makes the yoke or waistband. Had to hammer the large gold grommets to make it fit around a body! Please note the green satin material— it is an ombre— so the coloring changes as you twirl!

Pic 4: side view of bustle skirt

Pic 5: Made with part of a purse, black tassel fringe, a button I cut the shank off to make it flat, white, brown/orange, blue feathers, anddddd glow in the dark green paint around the button! I got carried away with this one.

Pic 6: Used the flap from the purse I used for the rest of these designs— made it into my version of a fanny pack. I cut a hole in the top of the purse, added the pocket from Valentino’s “dirty purse” (the pocket was clean!) and added ribbons to tie it around wherever/however the heck you’d like.

Look for these one of a kind designs in my etsy shop—- should be up in a few days!
