My very talented friend Juliet showed me this gorgeous wallet she made out of leather, featuring a vintage gold, white and orange button that once belonged on a sweater of her mother's. The minute she showed it to me--in a casual Did-you-see-the-wallet-I-made? way--I knew I wanted it to be the subject of this week's handbag post.
I love the combination of making something new and incorporating something not only vintage but personal into the design. If Juliet decides to produce a small batch of these, I will be the first in line to buy!

Are you kidding? Any color!
It looks great, even though I'm not into leather)) And the button is amazing)
Hi Marina! It's so funny, since your post on vintage buttons, which I really loved, I've been seeing vintage buttons everywhere, including this wallet.
I so admire people with the talent to create things! Especially lovely, functional things!
Thanks for stopping by G&G!

Oh, I love it! Wallets have to be in red. As red stands for the prosperity :)
Only down point - there's no pocket/department for coins :(
Hi V! I'm with you, I love it when someone I know can make something beautiful, I am so not craft-oriented myself. I like the idea of it, but not the reality.
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I will return to G&G soon!
Hi Ginta! I need to get a red wallet in my life soon if red = prosperity.
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I am returning to Hunting and Gathering to see more of your lovely outfit posts!
