My art median is embellishing vintage items be it purses, clothing, hats or jewelry. This book is excellent with regards to embellishing a vintage purse. Making a personal statement with your own style on something that already exists. I bought the book because it guides you through some of the processes of embellishment and shows exquisite pictures of the end product. For crafters engaged in this type of art median, I highly recommend the style of this author and the contents of the book.
Very beautiful purse embellishment ideas. The pages are sturdy and the entire book is very clean and easy to understand. Hope to do several of these projects.

Most of the designs are created by embellishing inexpensive store-bought bags, but patterns for sewing four popular styles are also included.
