My new loves ❤️

It has been a while since I’ve been able to work on some of my project pieces.. but I am happy to share the latest ones ❤️ LV Amazone - the vachetta leather trims started to patina unevenly and the strap was missing. I’ve love sling bags so thought this was a great opportunity for me to get creative 🤩 i repainted the vachetta leather to black to give her a new look and a more comfortable fit, i used a thick guitar strap with matching black accent 🖤 LV Danube - the vachetta leather trims started to patina and crack, and the strap was missing. I removed the leather tabs and put in new gold color d rings and purchased an unbranded leather strap from Amazon. i also tried to restore the trims by patching up the cracks and repainting it with vachetta colored leather paint. LV Noe - the vachetta leather started to crack on the trim and patina in the bottom, and it was missing the leather string. Using leather cement, i tried to save what’s left of the leather trim and repainted all the leather parts to even out the color. I also wanted to convert this into a two-way bag so I replaced the shoulder strap to match the string closure and added d-rings so that i can convert her into a backpack! I buy these pieces just to try and give them new life and because I enjoy restoring bags and SLGs.. while i generally don’t mind keeping them, if you are super interested, I can probably be convinced to sell :) feel free to send me an offer / message 💐
