I think most of us would like to own Emma's Chanel Graffiti bag, and I think I might have an idea as to how to get something similar to it.
MAG from punkyourchucks.com is an AMAZING painter, he recreated Emma's garden chucks and her black low-tops for all of us. Perhaps he could do the same with the bag... He does offer custom quotes, and hey, its worth a try.
But I want to get your opinions too... yay or nay?

That would a good idea, but I'm sure he would give it to us at a expensive price.
I do love that bag.

Yeah, but we'll know they'll always be available to us, it can't go out of stock because he makes them as the orders come in. But it is a hard paint job and he'll need a bag to paint, so that could raise the price. $400 vs. $1,500 is still a pretty good deal if everything is hand painted.

True, but my dad could never buy a bag for that price. He won't go over $100.

Mine either, but I can wait until I'm on my own...

It's not a bad idea at all and, depending on how he feels about doing an exact copy of the logo, I reckon he'll do it  |

Yeah, I have no doubt he'll do it.

I'd love to see what he can do. I'm still looking out for a bag to paint.

I sent him a quote and he replied asking for detailed pictures. The best I could find were the Ebay pictures, does anyone know of any others? He also said he needed the original price... I told him around $1600...

FYI about the e-Bay link - even though if you try to copy these pictures it says you can't, you actually can. Just right click and a warning will pop up, then right click again and you will get the option to copy the picture and it will without the stupid warning label. That's how I got the pictures. I was thinking of doing a DIY and these images have some great shots of the bag and its interior. And Dobby if you send me your e-mail address I have a bunch of images that I have accumulated of this bag, some of which come with exact dimensions. There was a really expensive buy it now on eBay awhile ago and I e-mailed the seller under the pretenses of being a perspective buyer and she sent me the dimensions. Let me know if you are interested.  |

Oooo, yes, yes, YES!!! Thank you SO much I'l PM it to you And I got a reply. If you send them a 12" by 12" by 9" bag, the artist will paint it for $200. You do have to send a custom quote, though. Thanks everyone for all of the help |
