Your new Coach: a mini-reveal thread!

[Teagaggle]

Thank you!
Did you take the c turnlock off before painting or did you just go around it carefully?
Also which color is truer in person, the top or the bottom picture?

I taped around it & then cleaned it up with a tiny brush after.
As for color, it changes in every light, but I'd say bottom. I took two more pics in natural light & as you can see, one looks different than the other. In full direct sunlight I'd say more green & in indirect light, I'd say more olive. That's clear as mud, huh! Lol...

Amazing! That’s a lovely colour and I really like how it goes with the gunmetal hardware.

I’d think this was a new release if I didn’t know better, it looks perfect!

Not a new bag but a new color...spent time this long weekend taking my stone blue Cassie & turning it green (fav color). Overall pretty pleased with result.

As always, you did a great job. It looks really good! This is a color that Coach should have offered in the Cassie — a cross between Surplus and Racing Green.

Clear as mud for sure!
It looks really amazing in any light.

You're sweet, thanks! I had such high hopes they would do the regular Cassie in the Fern green they had but nope.
I just got a 2nd Cassie camera bag in Taupe with silver hardware that may be this weekend's project...going black.

Looks great! Do you prefer paint to dye? I have only used dye so far and always overdo it and get the "bronzing" effect. Also the sealer I use leaves a high sheen so good to have the tip to make more matte

Thank you! I know you RIP the blue bag, lol.
I used Fiebings leather dye for my siggy combo in black. That was my only experience. Having used all Angelus leather paint for this, it was soooooo much easier to work with & I won'tgo back. More customizable & even prior to sealing, there was zero transfer. The dye was problematic in that way (some user error I'm sure).
I'll be using all Angelus products for the next project but want even less sheen so I'll be adding some duller to the paint.

I also had terrible experiences with Fiebings. Angelus does seem easier although I still haven't finished my first project with it.

Keep me posted!

Keep me posted!

I will, but don't hold your breath. It's been sitting there for months waiting for me to get back to it.
