Okay, so, I’ve been eyeing this PRADA Small Prada Galleria Saffiano Special Edition Bag for a while now. I saw it at the store and I just fell in love with it. I mean, it’s a classic, right? But the price tag, man, it was a bit much. So I thought, why not try to remake it?
First, I started digging around for info. I found out that the original bag is made up of like 83 separate pieces! 83! Can you believe it? I needed to know every little detail, every stitch, every piece of hardware.
- I spent days, no, weeks, studying pictures online.
- Then I started looking for the materials. This “Saffiano” leather, they make a big deal about it. I managed to find something pretty similar, at least to my untrained eye. It felt right, looked good, so I went with it.
- Getting the right hardware was another mission. I searched high and low, online and in local stores. Finally, I found some pieces that were close enough.
The Assembly
Then came the hard part. Cutting the leather, sewing it all together, this wasn’t just sewing, it was like, architecture or something. There were so many pieces! I messed up a few times, ngl. Had to unpick and redo some parts. My fingers were sore, let me tell you. It was tough, but I kept going. The image of that beautiful bag in my mind kept me motivated.
After what felt like forever, I finally put the last stitch in. And there it was. My very own Remake PRADA Small Prada Galleria Saffiano Special Edition Bag. It wasn’t perfect, sure. There were a few imperfections here and there. But you know what? I made it. Me. With my own two hands.
And you know what the best part is? It looks pretty darn good! I’ve been using it for a while now, and I get compliments all the time. People can’t believe I made it myself. It’s not just a bag, it’s a story. A story of perseverance, of not giving up, of making something beautiful with my own hands. So yeah, that’s my story of remaking the PRADA Small Prada Galleria Saffiano Special Edition Bag. It wasn’t easy, but it was so worth it.
