    Paint the entire purse (You can paint some of it and move on to taping more, which is what I did, but I didn't remove the tape until the end. I also brushed gold paint on the strap of the purse.

    FIN! I hope you like how it turns out, and remember that you can experiment with various paints and chevron patterns. The key chain on the purse is made of various earrings attached to one another on a chain, which is connected to a key ring and onto the purse.
