Synopsis

This fun guide teaches readers how to emulate fashion-forward looks of top designers, such as the grand dame of handbags Judith Leiber, without breaking the bank on bling. Detailed instructions and more than 150 colour photos demonstrate how to create glitzy items from bags acquired at garage sales and flea markets, using reasonably priced acrylic or metallic rhinestones and a healthy helping of creativity. Featured projects to help crafters bring the bling include: spectacular handbags; snappy cell phone, iPod and MP3 cases; bold business card cases; and, wickedly cool sunglasses.
