Fendi Plexi Clutch with Swarovski Crystals
I couldn't find any studs with flat backs, so I folded in the prongs and used them as the surface for the glue.
When I caught a glimpse of this clear studded Fendi clutch, I was immediately smitten. The price tag (almost $6,000) was obviously not as appealing. I started brainstorming about how I could make a similar clutch with a clear pencil box and some pyramid studs and I ended up doing just that. I spent the majority of my Sunday gluing these studs (found on etsy) to the supply box I found at Jo-Ann Fabrics (I used E-6000 adhesive glue and a ruler to keep them straight). I couldn't be happier with the final product!

Valerie- I'm so proud of you!!! I LOVE it and whew- good thing, because $6,000 miiiiight have been a little costly for your bank account (per Gabe's comment:).
