Bought this book with high hopes. The books glossed over hurriedly over on "how to" convert a cigar box into a purse. Did NOT give any basics or details that you could use. Totally disappointed.

You are better off using the money that you were going to use to buy the book to buy the purse hardware....and work it out yourself.

The book was a waste of time and effort......in my opinion.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not what I thought it would be, May 6, 2011

Leaves out basic information on how to do things. There are some reproductions of old cigar labels, etc. that are included in the book, and this is what is used for all the purses shown. It shows the way to lay out the included images to get a specific look, so it's basically a cut and paste illustration with no other information. I wouldn't buy this again.
