Birchbark Posted January 3, 2018 Report Posted January 3, 2018 I saw this someplace and thought it was a nice idea. I'm sure one of the talented people around here could make something like this with no problem. Made By Enid Collins in 1962 Russell bobscroll, MTCowpoke22, ChelCass and 5 others 8 Quote

Len I'm not sure, I was picturing it as a kind of intarsia paint mix. But not really sure. Here are many more he made. Enid Collins Wood Purse This one has got the mix of "jewels" and paint i think. This one was made in '61. I'm sure they were good sellers. I bet there's a bunch of women that would like to have an original now. Russell wombatie 1 Quote
Scrappile Posted January 4, 2018 Report Posted January 4, 2018 The reason I wrote "Cigar box purse" was when I was in the cigar box guitar/ukulele making mode a few years ago there was a few people that made purses also. You can find them on Etsy also. I don't think these are made from cigar boxes, but could be. Here of more images of cigar box purses: https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=cigar+box+purses&FORM=HDRSC2 Quote
