Maybe you can make a duct-tape copy of a berkin? Duct tape comes in different colors too!

I didn't say in Singapore. My wife's comment was regarding a photo in a magazine.

It's not like you have to travel far from SG though to find every brand of fake handbag...

You know I had to google directions for that immediately. I came upon this, it's actually quite beautiful: http://diycraftstomake.blogspot.com/201 ... pired.html

I love upcycling! 8-)

I say, go for it! We'd love to see what you come up with. It'll be a statement against ridiculously priced and hyped purses.
