I know next to nothing about fashion, but I have to say it was pretty neat when designer Giles Deacon released some metallic Triceratops handbags earlier this year. As with just about any other piece of designer apparel, though, getting one can cost a pretty penny, so Sara Zucker of the Styleite blog figured out how to make one herself out of a Triceratops plush she had lying around. I am not nimble enough with a needle and thread to give it a try (nor do I really need a dinosaur handbag), but it looks simple enough. If you decide to give it a go, snap a photo of your project and tell us how it turned out!
