zuzu maxx, I hope your bag is found quickly!!! If not, I hope you are fully compensated for its loss.

You all are killing me, over here! Better be careful with a live flame near leather!

I mean, baghag is only getting two, and frangelica (one? sorry, I forget). So how many bags need to be sacrificed?! Let's not go overboard, ladies

Ha Ha! Swim baby!! Let's see, I have a really pretty Monsac bag that I have had for EVER. It was the most expensive bag I purchased *ahem* at the time. Here's how old it is...I bought it when ladies still HAD to wear pantyhose to work. Well, it has this cute little exterior zip pocket and I'll be damned if every time I carried it I didn't rip my stockings! I still have it! Don't know why...I think I was going to reattach the plastic thingy and return it (baghag) - 20 years later in the pot it goes

I'm with kuwa on this, no clutches shall be hurt during the making of this tPF thread!!

LOL! I can see it now. . . kuwa running in slo-mo as the bag gets tossed in the flames. . . "NOOOOOOOO". HAHAHAHA!

Yes, I'm getting two. Frangelica-one. Poor Frangelica. She didn't get a preview picture because the photographer thought her Ormala was the same bag as mine (it is, but she has the turquoise striped lining).

I am certain Nordstrom will take back your 20yr old bag with no questions asked.

Hag, no bonfires...against the law to pollute the air, how about the microwave? I would rub a little EVOO on the bag and nuke at 90% power for 10 minutes, rotating halfway thru. Be especially fun to do with a pleather bag

Not sure about the toxic fumes though

Ok, Matt has a suede bag for the dunking test that can be sacrificed to the handbag god to ensure perfect shipments. That is like a double sacrifice-- one to water and then two to fire. We may need some napom to ignite the water-soaked bag, but all in the name of good clean fun!

We can even post results in an Extreme Handbag Edition. I wonder what burning suede smells like?

People can burn leaves up near me, so fires are legal near me. I just gotta figure out how to light the napom without blowing up the house.

Spoken like a true Californian - LOL!

Oh my, could you see my little ice cube number on the flames!? Poof!!

Uh huh, how did you know this, Miss Baghag?? BUSTED!!

Okay, ladies, STEP. AWAY. FROM. THE BAGS. HAnds on your heads.

Actually, okay, Zuzu MAxx can sacrifice the snagging-bag, it has destroyed its share of hosiery.
