{ glamourai diy } the old bow and chain
recently, on my DIY idea tumblr, i posted pics of bow-bedecked chain handle bags from lanvin and marni, and pledged to pick a bag from my personal collection to be-ribbon.
this normally neglected, vintage morris moskovitz fur purse was perfect for the project:
{ABOVE: BEFORE}
i wove a bias silk ribbon through a little over half the gold chain handle {just enough so it would crest over my shoulder when worn}, braided the remainder with a smaller brass chain...
{ABOVE + BELOW: AFTER}
...then finished the ribbon ends with my favorite fanciful flourish ~ floppy bows!
i am thrilled with the results of this fun and easy project, and can't wait to wear my newly improved {so much better} bag!
