Personalise your leather satchel with gold hardware!
Recently I was in Singapore for the weekend, and chanced upon a shop selling leather goods and luggages. What caught my eye was the “50% off!” sign on all Cambridge Satchel Company bags in-store! My excitement was growing when it burst into delight – I laid my eyes on a beautiful 11″ black batchel (named so because of its top handle)!

The reason why I was so excited was because I have been eyeing the 11″ satchel with a top handle which increases its functionality as a clutch. Best bit was having it off at 50% cheaper too as the store was making way for new stock.

As a fan of personalisation and because gold hardware works amazing against a black canvas, I did a DIY revamp on my satchel! Read below for my pictorial tutorial on how to do so.

  • How to make a satchel. Diy Revamp: Personalise Your Cambridge Satchel With Gold Hardware - Step 1
    Step 1

    Steps:

    1. Mark where you would like your studs to be.
    2. Choose a hole size on your hole puncher. The hole should be big enough for the screw to fit through.
    3. Press hard! In my case, I had to get the help of the males to assist me in punching the holes using the hole punchers.
    4. Screw the studs into the holes you have just made.
