I hate it when they cut the strap. People stop doing that!!
Not if I can’t do it with a silver polish cloth!!
We all need support staff.
My support staff helps my by grooming his feathers and being completely uninterested in buffing.

I don’t suppose any here wants to fess up to this attempt?? If it had a handle and if the seller wanted to unload it for $20 shipped, I would. Just to see what would happen if bleached out the pen lines and recolored it. Hell, I may even do it without the handle for $20 shipped.
Okay I really have to get off here, do laundry and wrap presents!

You are right, both the Court and Patricia creeds were fainted from beginning with. Dunking just made them worse.
Your rehab consultant seems to be alot more helpful then mine.I'm realy interested in how yours turns out and how you do it, I'm not happy with the job I did on the black saddlery, it isn't visible but my technique needs improvement.
Received the purse organizer today, imo it is good concept but cheap made. Durability might be an issue, does save up space for organizing bags, but store bag in a dust bag, then lay flat inside cupboard box provide better protection.

I was worried that the shape would squish the purses.
I'll post pictures when done. I've never done a piping repair where the damage was this bad, so I'm hoping for the best. I'm planning to use Fiebing's Leather Cement to fill the holes, then paint over it with acrylic paint.
I find it hard to get the leather cement to dry smooth, which is why I use puff paint too.
Do you mix the paint with the leather cement or paint on top after the glue dries?
Most likely will if the bag is not stuffed with papers or bubble wrap something.
Great job on this rehab, and I can definitely understand how you feel about it seeming like more of a chore than a pleasure to rehab some of these bags. I get into a zone where I really enjoy it and rehab a bag or two for a couple weeks, then I fall into a zone where I don't want to deal with it, so the rest of them sit for awhile. I had two that I just finished rehabbing for a friend and was on a time crunch so I could get them back to her while she's in town; I found I sort of avoided dealing with them until I couldn't put it off any longer. For me, a typical rehab takes at least a week if not more, with all the conditioning after a dunk, and removing/cleaning/polishing hardware is one of the most tedious chores for me. If the bag's just for my use, I might slack off on some of the aspects I'd be more diligent on for someone else's bag. All I know right now is that I'm a big BIG fan of nickel hardware because polishing brass can be a PITA!
