St Pats Day Light Up Purse

Well How the hell are you all here in blogland? Me, it's that time of year already and you all know what that means...YEP!!! ST. PATTY'S DAY PARTAH!!! lol....we are gearing for it this coming weekend....this year I went all out with anything light up..I ordered so much stuff that we are going to be a walking light bulb...not to mention we have added some new friends to the mix and we are dressing them up to....I know we look like dorks, but we love to have fun.....here's a link to some photos from years past....and the project below I made from a paper mache purse....ENJOY!!!!!!


 this is the front of the purse....the chain and the clover medallion was a necklace that I purchased and used it for the front and back....I have 2 clip on flashing light ups hanging....

here's what the flashers look like....they are really bright so I wanted to tone down the light and have them hung behind the clover....


this is the back...I had seen this saying on some shirts on the net, liked it so I made it for my purse....behind  the top part I added a flashing light there as well...hung it on some jump rings...


side view

top view....I kept it simple...


this is the bottom view....I only added 3 legs as apposed to 4...these are actually flashing light up rings....there are 3 different flashing modes to these to....in the photo below you can see all I did was cut holes in the bottom and pushed these through...I left them as is so I can easily remove and change them when they burn out....how smart is that....lol....

this is the inside...



closer view of that darling stamp...I played it safe on this project and used only rubber stamps.....


front with the little lights on behind the clover


this is the back and feet lit up...this looks so cool in the dark...


another look


sorry about the photo but tried to show what it looks like in a dark room.....

Well, that's all I have for a week or so....we are off to the beach in a couple of days and I really need to get everything in order....my father in law comes as soon as we get back for a few weeks again....so I have to have all of my work done before we go.....I hope everyone has a wonderful day...Happy early St Patty's Day....Hugs from a very warm Charm City
