Hello friends and happy Friday. I’m looking forward to the weekend and taking advantage of discounted flowers at the grocery store since they’re usually discounted after Valentine’s day. Speaking of Valentine’s day, I hope you had a great one.
Today I wanted to share with you this super fun little clutch that I painted a couple of weeks ago. It’s bright and colorful and I think it’s going to be a conversation starter.
I had so much fun painting it and though I used very happy colours, you can tone it down and maybe just do black and white or more neutral colours etc.
I used a combination of DecoArt Premium acrylics and Americana acrylics and painted a plain straw clutch I found at Michaels.
I decided to paint random colors and a white in between to tone it down a bit…
I then added lots of little tassels to complete it and….
I just love it! I can’t wait to rock it in the spring and summer time. This kinda reminds me of another project I did a couple of years ago…
This image actually depresses me because I was so thin and I had shoulder muscles….:'( Ha
Anyyywwwaaayyyy, I hope you have a beautiful weekend.
much love,
Lucy

I love it and would make mine very colourful just like that too! For the tassels, is that just embroidery thread or is it
yarn? I’m in Canada , so I hope our Michael’s have straw clutches like that. You are so inspiring! Thankyou!
Lucy says
Hi Colleen , yes, it’s just embroidery thread and I’m in Canada too ! Yay xo
Meredith says
Such a great project – I never would have guessed it was a DIY. Can you share where your striped long sleeved shirt is from in the top photo? It’s lovely.
Gail Plaskiewicz says
I love this clutch! My problem is a clutch is just that, a clutch. I know I would leave it somewhere like in a store or somewhere else. I would do exactly what you did because I am all about being colorful. You did a beautiful job.

Lucy,
Did you make or buy the tassels? Love this look!

I’m amazed, I have to admit. Seldom do I encounter a blog that’s equally educative and interesting, and let me tell you,
you’ve hit the nail on the head. The issue is something that not enough
people are speaking intelligently about. I’m very
happy I stumbled across this in my search
for something relating to this.
Amy Rose says
Seeing such a colourful bag after a very long time. I will definitely make this one and share images with you.
Gina says
I love this! Can you tell me how you did the tassels? Did you buy them pre made or did you do them? How did you get them to attach to the bag?

I don’t even understand how I ended up right here, but I assumed this submit was great.

One of the best entertaining website and you teach us so many things. Thanks for that.

I know that such entertaining things can be bought in one store, where there are no overpriced and there are no problems with buying a good and high quality thing. I bought the same cup holder and so on and I still have it, although I bought it a long time ago. So I keep ordering. And if interested, then here is 7th avenue store phone number and can learn more about the range and so on. I hope I was able to help and it was helpful!
