Making My Girlfriend a Custom Hermes Inspired Bag.

Don't forget to subscribe and follow me on instagram! @8thWeekday. Oh the Hermes Birkin, one of the most legendary purses/bags to ever exist. They are very expensive…I’m not sure if you know that but I do. So for a while Hermes used box leather for their Birkins so that’s what we did too. If you are a purse lover you may notice a lot of this design is based off the Saint Laurent Sac De Jour! Leather Michael and I thought that was a nice looking bag so we hopped on the Sac De Jour train. Other than that, I really have no interest in purses so maybe subconsciously that’s why I made a giant bag for Taylor instead of a regular sized bag…tbh I meant it to be way smaller. Anyways fun fact of the day: "A Birkin from the Himalaya series crafted from Nile crocodile hide, and carefully dyed to resemble the snow-capped Himalayas. with 18-karat white gold and diamond hardware—was sold for $379,261 in auction at Christie’s." Second fun fact: Hermes bags often use palladium hardware which is the most expensive metal on Earth...most commonly found in catalytic converters! #hermes #birken #itsnotapurseitsatchel MY FAVE PRODUCTS (affiliate links - help support the channel!): - My EDC & Favorite Clothing Pieces: https://carrot.link/theironsnail/my-edc-and-favorite-clothing-pieces - Men’s Fall & Winter Outfits: https://carrot.link/theironsnail/mens-fall-and-winter-outfits - 12 Best Men’s T-Shirts: https://carrot.link/theironsnail/12-of-the-best-t-shirts-ranked - The Snail Community’s Fave
