Where can I find a picture of those wrapped handles? I don't really know what it does look like, thanks

TejasMama · Jun 23rd, 2009, 01:22 PM

I know that the wrapped handles are new and have never seen them before. I'd be interested in seeing them. I'll email BE and ask if they have anything for us to use as a reference. Thanks!

Le Dix · Jun 23rd, 2009, 01:38 PM

That would be great. I've searched the forum and got an idea of what it could be like but seeing pictures from BE would of course be better

TejasMama · Jun 23rd, 2009, 05:10 PM

I've already received a message back from Jackie regarding the leather handle option. From my understanding, it is a leather lining underneath the handles for extra support. She said that it will be just like lining, only leather, and that it will look very nice. I hope that helps!

Some people on the clementine bespoke are getting leather lined handles, but that is not even in production yet!

bonniekir · Jun 25th, 2009, 08:25 AM

I saw this bespoke on the Hold me is up on the BE site now!!

Great!!

TejasMama · Jun 25th, 2009, 10:25 AM

Yes. We have four now. We're halfway there, but we're running out of time. I think the AP offer ends on July 3, correct?

Anyone else considering this bespoke?

lilac0485 · Jun 25th, 2009, 01:59 PM

I am! Just signed up on BE Couture, didn't realize you had started a group until now.

TejasMama · Jun 25th, 2009, 04:13 PM

1. TejasMama--Pewter Hold Me, Purple Lining, Matching Pewter AP
2. BonnieKir--Pewter Hold me, Purple lining, considering Pewter AP w/ purple lining
3. Bagsloverogs11--maybe?
4. Lenabean--
5. Odebdo- maybe
6. Lilac0485 - Pewter Hold Me, Leather Wrapped Handles, Purple Lining, Matching AP (no lining preference)

It looks like we MAY have six now, is that correct? We're close to getting this one off the ground!

Just imagine--if anyone is interested in trying Pewter for the first time (like me!), this is the perfect bag--it's simple, elegant and versatile. It also comes with a free AP and is, without a doubt, the least expensive bespoke currently going.

Anyone else we can entice?

lenabean · Jun 25th, 2009, 08:59 PM

Just adding my preferences.....

1. TejasMama--Pewter Hold Me, Purple Lining, Matching Pewter AP

3. Bagsloverogs11--maybe?
4. Lenabean-- Purple lining, gold hardware, matching AP with purple lining
5. Odebdo- maybe
6. Lilac0485 - Pewter Hold Me, Leather Wrapped Handles, Purple Lining, Matching AP (no lining preference)

TejasMama · Jun 25th, 2009, 10:57 PM

Are there two more ladies out there?

gapaholic13 · Jun 26th, 2009, 12:25 AM

Oh man...I'm thinkin'...

Le Dix · Jun 26th, 2009, 06:46 AM

What delivery date are you planning to go with? I would be tempted if it was September or so as I need some time to get the funds together.

Also, is there the possibility of going with a slightly smaller model as I prefer to wear the bag on the shoulder and the square bottom is not so comfortable to wear that way.

lilac0485 · Jun 26th, 2009, 09:23 AM

I would prefer an ASAP deliery date, but would be willing to push to September if that means we get a group. The Hold Me mini is very mini and evening or child size. I think the Hold Me is best as a hand held bag or crook of the arm bag.

Le Dix · Jun 26th, 2009, 11:02 AM

Oh dear, I thought that a Hold Me with a slightly smaller bottom or a regular one with a bottom that has broken in would work for wearing on the shoulder. But after your comments I guess it's just not the right bag for that purpose.

I probably should just do a bespoke for a pewter AP
