Kim White Car Upholstery Handbags

Kim White took her time machine way back in the day to the land of vintage car textiles to find the motor-licious materials from which she makes her fabulous handbags. Take, for example, the Wheat Basketweave satchel--made from a 1975 Buick Skylark--a vision in retro-ness that manages to avoid being kitschy. (Can you believe they upholstered cars with this stuff?!)Even the 1983 Camaro is perfectly charming--and, thankfully, with no hint of a mullet in sight. $180 ::Kim White Handbags [by MO]
