Brown Birkin for a Turkey?

[archangel]

why not brick or raisin for the body?

i'm trying to keep it soft shades of brown "tweed" colors. that's the problem.

 

[seton]

I think I would just go for vert olive body with brown handles and 'belt'. I love those two colors together.

I love this idea and I also love your Utamaro ukiyo-e avatar

I love DQ's idea of brique. Or Rouge H, maybe? A red, chocolate and vert olive would be gorgeous.

^^^oops...just saw your post about the TWEED COLORS. so no reds. sable? has someone posted that? or potiron

 

[Haute Couturess]

i'm not really sure what potiron looks like in box...would like to know though.

OOOOOOO.....How about Cognac front and back, Havanne sides, Olive flap, Havanne straps and Gold hardware!?!?!?!?!?

 

[S'Mom]

...too much?

 

[ilovemylife]

DQ will kill me for going on about this...but look at the sides....are they truly gold? and then the front is something a little darker? maybe caramel or something else? this is what is digging at me.

ilovemylife, how do you fill the different colors in your blank birkin diagram? i'm desperate to learn how to do that!

I used the color pencils to paint on the blank birkin.
Do you want to switch the dark brown to be in front and congac on the side,strap, handles, and vert olive at the back?

 

[ilovemylife]

this is what i was thinking!!!!! but i have no colored pencils boo hoo..........

oh, i love my life......can you help us? pretty please???

 

[Haute Couturess]

i wish to god i knew if the front of this kelly really was gold....b/c look at the sides! they look like the gold to me.

if that's true, then could the front be cognac? if so then cognac's my winner for front...if not i'm still confused

 

[Haute Couturess]

let's compare...i'm digging out pics here. i'm afraid cognac might have too much "red" in it. KWIM?

 

[Haute Couturess]

here's noisette!!!! would this go well with choc and vert olive?
