A little appropriation of a Whitney Classic for this one
So that poor yet well loved White Bayswater that was discussed in the shopping forum got me thinking. I would really like to give bag refurbishment project a go. Obviously I know there are professionals who do this but after reading about Plemonts "Home for Old Bags" thread I would really like to give it a go, I recently cleaned up a Marc Jacobs bag to a standard that I was really pleased with and felt so satisfied at the end of it. I love the idea of giving a bag that may be viewed as past it's best a new lease of life and a whole lot of love
Any tips of where to go looking for a pre loved or scratched, faded, stained, scuffed etc premium bag? I am a bit wary of ebay as even the most trashed bags seem to go for decent sums of money although lucky for us that we have the authenticators here to ensure we are getting the real deal. If any of you come across a bag suitable for a new home and a loving refurb please do pass me on the details
Any ideas or tips greatly appreciated!
