Description:

This can be either a thrifted item conversion or a wholly made unit. The idea is to make a Useful Bag using Steampunk Aesthetics for your partner. For extra happiness points you can do the following:

Include a useful steampunk item within the bag

Write a note describing either the provenance of the bag or its intended use

There are a lot of leather or faux-leather purses and satchels out there in thrift-olia wishing for a brand new existence. Go forth and liberate their beaten-down souls!

What a great idea! I would join, but am so swamped intill the end of January I fear I wouldn't have the time to do it. Will keep my eye on it if I can get a little more time I will join.

Thanks ViolaOdorata, very nice bag. . .and your wallets are fun and colorful. Google has some interesting pictures, too. I'll see if I can find something suitable to alter.
