Camera Bag Purse

I loved THIS camera bag

from Epiphanie.

Oh and THIS one too.

I wish they had the turquoise one 

with a hot pink interior like the black one.

And maybe for my birthday

they'll be back in stock and someone

nice will gift me one of these beauties.

But for now, I fashioned my own.

I bought a purse that struck my fancy 

at Marshalls

Just $24.99

I LOVE the color.

and it has the perfect number of pockets.

plus easier on the wallet 

than one of the fancier Epiphanie bags.

Then I purchased some foam & pretty fabric.

$10 

Not that I couldn't have just picked a fabric

from my growing collection here at home.

Sewed the fabric around the foam

and ta dah!  Camera bag purse. for less than 40 bucks.

(still need to add a divider piece so I can carry an extra lens)

I decided not to stitch it to the lining,

so that I could remove the pieces and use it just as a purse

if I ever wanted.
