The little purse was covered with a red vinyl that was damaged heavily on a side of it. The idea was to change the look of the purse and make it useful again. Using a cloth like paper that is durable and with a great finish, the purse had a stylish uplift. Paint the paper with your favorite paints or markers to match your style.
Remove the old cover from all sides. Make sure that surface is clean and will allow glueing the paper.
Cover the Mixed media origins paper with the Crushed sheels glimmer mist and add drops of red High impact paint.
Repeat with the clay mist. Use a wet baby wipe to distress the colors on the paper.
Cover with the Rose gold High impact paint the whole paper.
Glue the paper on the purse’s sides and cover any other parts with the rose gold High Impact paint. Add a chain and charms.
