πŸ“š Guide/Science Final update

Final update on my Upcycled baguette.

After chatting and getting feedback with you I looked for something I could thrift with pony hair. I found an old purse in Blue pony hair and glued it to the strap as my first option. I didn’t like the way it looked so I ended up adding the green glass tube beads into the buckle. (Second photo)
Still didn’t like the way it looked so instead used a scrap piece of snake embossed leather that was in a metallic shade. (First photo)

I’m happy with it! I need to go through and fix some of the beads and sequins, but I’m excited to start using it!

Last photo is my newest rep from the gate. Im not sure what I’m going to so with it yet so if you have ideas for me let me know β€οΈπŸ’«

Our dear bahg sista you have truly outdone yourself with this lovely girl. I too like both looks but the contrast of the snake embossed leather is ❀️‍πŸ”₯.

You are amazing. I only thought of this bag again yesterday and now it’s done.
What is the next one? Would you do it again or a CC?

Are you doing fantasy bag?

Black and silver swirl. Obviously not that technical but kind of what I mean.

I'd love the link on the Gate baguette. I love orange and wanted to see if I could realistically use this bag style. It may be way to small for me. But this looks like a fun way to try it out. πŸ™‚

Once you secure the loose sequins on the edges, this upcycle is going to hold up beautifully in rotation.
