I love all the bag charms! I got these tassel charms from a seller in Korea on eBay. It kind of pops the bags even more.

Funny you should ask! I not only like to add charms , but I like to add chains as well! As in CHAIN STRAPS! I think they look so pretty on the bags and they make great replacement straps if you ever lose one, plus they are interchangeable and you can use the on any one of your bags. You know I don't like gold, so this one is a bag I gave to my sister and I knew she would want a longer strap, so check this out! Plus when you are not using it, it adds a nice bit of bling to the bag, just hanging there! Look how it brings out the gold hardware and buckles on the bag.

In the two other pics are charms that I made myself for some extra bling and added them to bags. Mind you, all of these were gifts, because I only do silver, but I have put a silver chain strap on my black and silver Naomi bag, and it looks fabulous Daahling!

Wow, really digging your style, CinthiaZ! Look at you! I wish I was creative like you! If you made a YouTube video I'd totally watch. 😊👍

They are super easy to make too. Go to any fabric store and ask for real or faux leather scraps. Cut into skinny strips, tie in the middle and either add a metal top crown or tie it off with an additional piece of leather. Add ball chain, and that's it. I was just gifted a Guccisima sukey in chocolate and it has a gucci charm on it! I love thingamabobs and whatnots!

Tassels are the rage right now along with the fur ball charms. I love the idea of making your own charms to add your own personalities to your purses. You ladies ROCK with all your designs & ideas!! :tup::tup::tup:

I love that charm! I'm wondering, do any of your girls tie a scarf around your purse?

It depends where I am going. Once in a while I will tie a red bandanna on one of my black bags. I find they come in handy, especially if I am with the grand kids! lol! I also never know when my husband is going to show up where I am, on his Harley. That way I can use it to tie my hair back and jump on the back with him! Bandannas are so handy and you don't have to worry about ruining them since they are a dime a dozen, and look cute! Once my husband pulled it off my purse and used it to wipe his bike off! lol!

Well thank you, Melbo! That is such a nice compliment. I get so mad at myself when I lose an earring or break a necklace, so it makes me feel better to use it on my bags and make something out of it. The chain strap thing came to mind out of necessity of needing a longer strap and saving money. If I had bought a black leather replacement strap, I could only use it on certain bags. The chains are better because you can use then on any one of your bags.

I agree! Great way to recycle who you already have. I like a chain strap as well! I feel like it gives it a certain edge.

I like the bandannas because they are just the right size and you don't have to tie them. Just slide it though the ring and you are done! They come in all colors and have that cute paisely print on them. I have seen some use scarves that are so big you can't even see the bag! lol! Then you have to fuss with making it into a bow. Too much trouble for me! I'm lazy! lol!

True! I'm actually looking to do something like this 1425860961140.jpg
I feel like my mandarin will look great with that pop of yellow. I'm am going to look for some silk and chiffon bandanas because I like the texture.
