Very nice. You've done a really good job on the bag. I love it. It can be really hard transforming an old piece to make it look new or in top condition. ^-^

You're welcome darling.
I've done some paintings recently but on a canvas paper. I mostly paint on bags and other accessories. ^-^Hi everyone! I'm new to TPF (this is my 3rd post I believe) and I hope I'm posting in the right spot (I didn't paint my bag but I did DIY refurbish it). Back in 2016 I purchased this vintage Coach bag with plans to refurbish it in some capacity, though I didn't have a clear direction at the time. Then life got busy and the project fell by the wayside. Fast forward to 2020, I left my corporate job to pursue a more creative career, the pandemic hit, I had loads of time on my hands, and I found the bag hanging out in storage waiting to be dolled up and loved again. I first tried puncture studding the bag but the leather was wayyyyy too thick to get the studs through so I opted to spike the bag using E6000 adhesive. I'm really happy with how it turned out and I can't wait to have somewhere to wear it too (hopefully) this fall.
