Bags in a Bag...

This was very fast.  I found some paper backed wood flooring scraps in my stash.   I cut a piece to fit the inside top of the purse and one for the hinge and back part.  That turned it into the floor of the closet.

Then I found a piece of real sized wallpaper to fit the inside back and sides.  I cut it just by pushing it into the purse and bending it where it needed to be cut.

When I got it in, I didn't like the color of the stripes, so I painted it Antique White with Ceramcoat.

I trimmed out the flooring with leftover strips.

Then I added strips of leather to cover the edges. 

I cut shelves from 3/32" basswood, a little shallower than the body of the purse and trimmed them with a strip of cove molding on the front of each shelf. 

Those were also painted antique white.

Basically, that was it.

I pounded a nail in the wall...Filled the thing with some of Tessie's bags that were scattered all over the house.

She immediately moved in.  I expect that to keep her happy for a day or two. 

I have to go to the mini meeting this afternoon.  She sabotaged herself.  By putting in shelves, she can't hide inside and go along to the meeting...Too bad...

I have to go get ready now.

See you tomorrow.
