Okay, so I got this idea the other day to remake the PRADA Arqué Leather Shoulder Bag. I mean, who wouldn’t want a designer bag, right? But without the designer price tag! So I just jumped right in.

First, I had to figure out how to draw the pattern. Luckily, I’ve got this computer drawing thing. I just pulled up a picture of the bag online and started tracing over it. I didn’t trace the bag exactly, just the basic shapes. It was kind of fun, actually. Like being a kid again, except with more at stake if I messed up.

  • Then I just needed the material. I had to make something that looks like leather but is not leather.
  • I thought about what I can use that is easy to get and cheap.
  • Then I had an idea! Use flour and water!

I grabbed a saucepan from the kitchen, filled it halfway with cold water, and put it on the stove. Turned the heat on high because I wanted it to get ready quickly. While waiting, I mixed up some flour and water in a bowl. I just eyeballed the amounts, didn’t measure anything precisely. You want it to be like a thick paste, not too runny.

Then, because I wanted my bag to be super sturdy, I decided to use an old trick from my grandpa and add cement into the mixture! He used to make these huge pots, and they would not break no matter what. So I added a bit of cement into the flour and water mixture.

After I got my “leather” ready, I found some old plastic bottles and bags lying around. Gotta be resourceful, you know? I cut them up into the shapes I drew earlier. These would be the pieces of my bag.

Building the Bag

I used the flour paste as glue and started sticking the pieces together. I saw someone make a big sculpture once using the same method, so why not, right? I had to make sure it is properly placed to get the shape of the bag. The cement will make this hold its shape really well. Honestly, the process took a while. You gotta let each part dry a bit before moving on, or it’ll just fall apart. Patience is key, which is something I’m not always good at.

Slowly but surely, the bag started to take shape. It was actually starting to look like the real deal! I was pretty proud of myself, not gonna lie. It wasn’t perfect, of course, but it was my own handmade, almost-PRADA bag.

Finally, it was done! I let it dry completely overnight, just to be safe. And the next morning, there it was. My very own PRADA Arqué bag, made with my own two hands. It felt pretty amazing to take something from an idea to a finished product. And hey, it didn’t cost me an arm and a leg, which is always a bonus!
