Stick with me, the title will make sense shortly :graucho:

Once upon a time there was a very worn, sad looking Charm Bag. It desperately wanted to go out and have adventures but unfortunately its owner was a little embarassed at what it had become and kept it locked at home in its dustbag. The bag was so depressed and felt like its life was over.....but surely it deserved a better life, yes?!

Poor bag was suffering.....darkening of the handles, wear at the corners, some areas where the shine had rubbed off....

So Bag Mummy decided to give this very sad bag a new life.....and a new colour!

Armed only with a bottle of Fiebings dye, some masking tape and a wet cloth, Bag Mummy spent a sunny afternoon transforming the bag into a new beauty!

So here we are, my new old Miu Miu Charm Bag!

WOW!

I own the same bag in the exact same original color you had and have been dying to fix it! Every time I think about carrying one of my Miu Miu bag's that is the one that comes to mind, the problem is, it looks as worn as yours used to look.

You did an amazing job with yours, enjoy it!!!!!!!
 
Oh my! What a beautiful bag and even more beautiful transformation. You did such a wonderful job!

May you carry it until forever! Black is indeed such a everyday bag color. ;)
