I may have to try this!! There are alot of sad coach bags that come through my small town thrift store that are sometimes beyond repair. I also had the idea of using one thats already ruined as a "frankenstein" bag..to try products on so i know how the coach leather responds before i add to one of my beloved bags
Pretty! The only bone/chalky Willis I came across was on Etsy. It looked like it was in great shape, beautiful. Looked at the Creed shot, it was F-A-K-E! And the seller wanted alot of $$ The font looked off to me and BeenBurned pointed out the style number was wrong too. I felt like I failed the quiz on Coach 101, What is the style # of the Willis? Lol
I will always associate that with a Willis in that color.
Oh the irony of Coach 101! Some fake Coach (usually made in Korea) bags do have a serial number starting with 101. [emoji23][emoji23]

I started my rehab journey in earnest with two badly water stained, mildewed bags bought for ten bucks each. The irony is I was completely uninvested in the outcome. And they came out amazingly.
Thats right lol lol Lord knows I have seen enough of those listed!
Oh bummer! I hate that, but ive been there before, too.I found a beautiful nubuc sonoma bucket bag that was a really good fake. The only thing that was wrong was the lining(wasnt striped) and the zipper pull. Hyacinth said it was a possibility that someone that worked at coach possibly made it after hours for themselves with scraps, because it looked like the real deal!. Yea, i had never seen a white willis before
would have loved to have added it to my collection
Omg..lol its storming here and i posted thankyou twice accidently!! Haha i hate this stupid service! What service, really.
And the creed wording..read one that said,"this is a good bag..."
Thats usually the way of it! Like the ones you think are a lost cause come out waaay better than you thought,and the ones you think dont need much need more
I post alot from my 7" tablet. My curser seems to jump all over the place on me and I laugh when when I see how some of my posts come out lol, no worries.
My goal was simply use the products that were new to me, on these bags before I tried them on bags I really like! And they hooked me into rehabbing!

Here's a new addition to my collection, a NYC Watermelon Satchel, #9441.
Deep brown Mocha color and awesome patina. I found a vintage luggage tag at the thrift store that seemed to belong. I love it when things come together!
