DIY refurbishment of braun buffel handbag!

hey look! I just done a leather handbag refurbishment all by myself!

Step 1: Cleaning with special cleaner
Step 2: Masking of metal parts and zipper
Step 3: Mixing of paint (intent: to change the original colour abit, to make it a little purpleish)
Step 4: Spray painting of handbag
Step 5: Leather conditioning & protection! =D

results looks satisfying! Here are some before and after photos:-
