Oh my I love that big blingy star! I wonder if I can send a bag for customization? Or can I buy the items and do it myself?

Thank you! Me, who randomly dyes a bag in the middle of the week...probably not the best person to ask if you could do it yourself! Ha! I'm going to say yes, but I don't know for sure how it's done. They do look like screws on the other side so I would think it would just be a matter of pounding a hole into the leather and then securing it. If you want more information, I am happy to share my store information. Feel free to PM me.

Oh I could totally do all of that if I could buy the little buggers! If they screw then they must be Chicago screw style which is right up my alley. I just didn't know if they let you buy the pins without installing them.

Speaking of dyeing - I "might" want to dye my red rogue handles black. What do you think? I have never dyed anything before.

I say no to the handles, although I think I'd love the look.
I only say that because with the dye I've used, when it's black, it does tend to transfer a bit for quite some time. I think givien it would be on the handles, it might cause an issue. Might be something more worth questioning on the rehab forum. They are the experts. I just do random things without really thinking about them! Like now, as I sit here and change all of the hardware on a another Cassie. I purchase the dark red and signature combo and I'm changing all of the brass hardware to gunmetal. I'll have to paint some of it, but have some spare parts from other things that I'm using for the dog leash clips and buckle.

I love that you do that without a second thought. I ordered a couple all black skinny scarves so I can try it out on the red. There's a pic somewhere here of someone who switched out the hangtag and straps for black and I love the look to tone down the all red especially with the black edging. Makes sense about the color transfer. I have a pic in my head of the red with black and Stick Man charm.
