Confessions of a closet purse collector

[pastperfect2]

I have been enjoying the various purse threads a great deal. Especially the fact that none of the posters thinks of themselves as a purse collecotr.

Then I was going through some disks.

And there they were.

Purses.

I only bought them to go with dresses, really I did.




My name is Hollis, and I am a purse collector.

The first step is admitting you have problem.

So here they are:

1860s Micro beaded purse

Teens Filagree frame and beads

1920s Satin with beads

1920s Brodace with Egyptian influence

1920s Whiting and Davis

Teens Silver Mesh

Teens Silver Compact

1920s Beaded

Hi Hollis. It's been 3 months since I bought a purse....

I'm afraid I fall off the wagon regularly.

Those are lovely, Hollis!

Wow! I like the egyptian influence brocade best I think (I see turquoise!!). And you know what, I am positive that all these little posts are only the half of what you're all admitting to owning.... :D

Great bags, Hollis.

This has been so much fun! :D

Fabulous, Hollis!...and just talking about it may help you recover!

NOT!

I suspect you are right.

But knowing that Jonathan may be getting his green chip for 3 months purse free may give me strength. .....
