Handy Dandy Tip Make Your Birkin feel lighter

[Roo Cambonne]

Yup another Handy dandy Tip

If you pad and wrap your handles you will find your Birkin suddenly feels lighter on your arm (yes, lighter without unloading all that stuff you are carrying around (we know who we are) WOW!
OK Here's the step by step you will need some VETRAP bandaging tape and two matching Hermes twillies which you adore and go with your bag... Follow the photo's and boy oh boy this works like a charm!
1) wrap the handles with the VETRAP(get at the Rx store) put extra wrap at the top where your hands/wrist/crook of arm go.

2) Snuggle wrap (pull tight when wrapping) your twillies

3) Wow you are done try it out.... easy, pretty and fuctional


I hope this helps

Thanks for this timeless tip docride. Every time I see vache it makes me weak at the knees. Is it difficult to keep?

Are you suppose to take the twilly's off after every use? I live in a very hot area and was afraid the moisture would cause color transfer to the handles.

The handles are protected by the vet-wrap, so you should n't need to worry about color transfer from the twillies.

I just tried this on my 35 cm kelly (which was getting painful to arm carry during short-sleeves summer season) - it works like a dream!

Thank you for the tip, docride!
