Cigar Box Purses

Cigar box purses? Hey, when I was growing up, cigar boxes were used for storing trinkets and treasures like a blue jay feather or cat's eye marble (yes, I am that old)... well girls, cigar boxes have certainly gone upscale.

Everyday cigar boxes are tarted up with fabrics, brass fittings, decoupage and all manner of decorative handles to make fabulously trendy purses like the one shown here.
