cigar box purses

[meloyellowd.livejournal.com]

here are some of the cigar box purses I've been working on... not 100% finished yet but gettin there...i'm sorry for the crappy pix...my mom took the good digicam for the wknd. These are pretty plain compared to what i usually do but i found some gorgeous boxes at my local cigar store n i didn't want to ruin them...so i just added a pretty neclace draped 3 times as a handle for one of them...then strung beads to make my own handles for the other 2...the cat fabric one...I have a black plastic handle that curves on both ends...i may use that if i can find the right mounting for it...but for now...it's a clutch.

I'll post better piks when I'm done with all the little touches and when i get the good cam back...i have like 4 more that need to be decoupaged so I'll post it all again then
