This beautiful Speedy 25 bag was in too good of condition to cut up!  So, I revamped it, and it's now come to life!!!  I've even added a cross body strap to it, to make even more functional!!!

I started by braiding over the top of the handles.  I added brass connectors to the sides so that the 6-strand braided leather crossbody strap could be connected.  The crossbody strap is 49" long, and is flat where it sits across your body, and then tapers to round towards the clasp.  The fringe may be trimmed to your liking.  It's just really the cutest bag ever!! This bag measures ~W10 x H7.5 x D6".  

The top of the bag near the zipper has a small amount of cracking (see pics). The zipper is fully functional, however, the pull was missing, so I added a cute brass feather to it.  The inside canvas liner is in excellent condition with no noticeable wear or stains.  There is an interior pocket that is typical of speedy bags. 

For a video review of this bag, please see my IG/FB stories, or the highlight bubble called "The Falcon."

Please note:  These are vintage bags, and will show some wear.  I try to call out everything, but please make sure to look at the pictures!!
