did someone say "counterfeit"?
As promised, here are updates from fellow Counterfeit Crochet Handbag folks! You people just tickle me silly and make me so happy. I love how people decided to handle the things like logos, details, and even colors--it's a real reflection of the "important" parts to you and how you decide to translate it. I love sharing these since if you're considering (or already are) a part of this project, it's great to see the individuality in each piece, even when folks choose the exact same bag! So don't be shy, it's not a competition to see who's better, it's just a personal challenge--!
...In order of images sent in to me...
-------------------------------
TERRY'S LOUIS VUITTON
-------------------------------
Check out the straps--so great looking, and the giant flowers! Terry also added cardboard inserts to help keep the shape (hint, hint, it works!) and it looks totally ready for the streets ;)
-------------------------------
ANGELA'S LOUIS VUITTON
-------------------------------
Note the fabulous gold embroidered logo all over it! not to mention the tiny little pink flower--it's a Murakami!
-------------------------------
CARRIE'S CHANEL
-------------------------------
Oh, Carrie, you are just a counterfeiting machine! This is the lady's second (her first was the giant Dior bag replete with detailed embroidered logo) and she's already started a third--someone stop this mad woman before she puts 'em out of business :). This one was made as a mother's day gift for her mom--can you imagine her mom toting this one around? So fab! Check the logo detail on the side, the dangly detail off the strap, and the long "papillon" shape (that's what it's called, right?)...
-------------------------------
DIANA'S DIOR (in progress)
-------------------------------
Oh, Diana, I can already tell this will be amazing...she sent in these shots of her new Dior and the details look so amazing--that crocheted "D" is taking my breath away!

How great are all these counterfeit bags!!! :) Stephanie, you should go under another alias and counterfeit your work! :) HA! what a hoot ~ I wonder if somebody has ever done that before come to think of it?
roxy, you are so postmodern! that would take the cake--starting an alter-ego of myself that copies myself....aaaaa! i've actually pretended to be other people before, but, um, not myself...hmmmmm.
hey all, thanks for the comments--aren't these ladymakers great??? here's to the counterfeiters of the world :)
ahahaha :) lol im laughing so hard = Yes! Definitely go for the alter-ego!!! AND make it a mean snotty alter-ego <- those are the best :) ahah lol....oh I dunno why I find this so funny..
All of these bags look great! I am still working on mine. Hopefully it will be done soon!
what an awesome project! now I just have to find the designer bag that I want and start crocheting....
that is so funny about the alter ego - I was actually thinking of counterfeiting my own bags, but those are already crocheted in part... hmmm
