Make your own Hermés!

Since ages, Hermés is one of the most popular brands speaking about handbags.. Owning an authentic 'Kelly' or 'Birkin' is an experience only a few women can tell you what this feeling is about..


The unreachable thought of this brand makes it even more popular around the world. Millions of replicas are for sale and even though it is officially not approved by the fashion world, every fashionista will let that behind for once while showing a piece of Hermés's finest designs..


Since Hermés has just celebrated it's 175th anniversary with an exclusive exhibition in London, they also offer us (bag-and Hermés addicts) the chance to make our own special Hermés bag..  No waiting list for months, no empty bank-account after your purchase, etc, etc..  Well, don't take it too seriously. This design is only suitable as a display in your closet, bag-wardrobe or a nice gift!


The design is inspired by the famous 'Jigé' clasp clutch. A very easy DIY: Pick your favourite colour and print the 'paper' design. After this, start folding, cutting and glueing the way it is written into the DIY manual.
You can download the pattern here..


Let it dry for a while and your 'self-made Hermés' is ready to be used!


Really.. Don't take it outside in the rain, it will get a very poor and weak bag..;)

If you want it, you'll have it! (Photo:talkiesmagazine)
