Vintage Purse - Crafty Individuals' Bird Cages



Just when you thought I wasn't going to make any more vintage bags, I am sneaking another one in! This is one of the purse size bags. I painted it with Fresco Finish paint in Vintage Lace, which has more of a mushroom tone than it looks in the photo. I stamped it front and back with some of the new bird cages from Crafty Individuals. I added rose net trim around the clasp.


I lined it with a serviette that reminds me of Paua Shell, and some black gathered lace.

  2. I agree with Terry! Love your bags, and I find the vivid liner such a nice contrast to the calm outer pallete.

  8. This movie gives the original Bird cage a fresh new shine and transports the story into the 90's. Well made, on all accounts, I can't think of a single criticism!
