Winfred Njoroge skillfully crafted a beautiful black fabric purse for Claudia, perfectly replicating a cherished model her friend loved but could no longer find. What's your wish?
A request by Claudia from Lustenau, Österreich
My friend would like to have his exact same purse again, but the model is no longer available.
It is a black fabric purse. I have photos and videos of it, but unfortunately attaching them doesn’t work on the website, can I still send them by email?

Hi Claudia, I'm going to buy the materials today and start working on the order tomorrow. I'll be taking pictures or videos and will be uploading every three days to make sure you're present . Have a great day 😊.
Hello Winfred,
perfect, thank you very much! I also wish you a nice Tag☺️ (Automatic translation)
Hi Claudia, I chose black canvas as the material to use, it's very strong and long lasting. I am working on the dimensions of the wallet and will keep you posted. 😊
Alright, thank you! (Automatic translation)
Hi Claudia. Concerning the inside of the wallet, I should put another black fabric or just leave it as canvas, in the video I saw like an inner soft fabric.
Hello, what exactly do you mean with the inside? If you fold it out or inside where you put the coins? (Automatische Übersetzung)
The place for the bills . I've sent a picture.
Oh, I didn't receive a picture. Where did you send it? (Automatische Übersetzung)
Hi Claudia, the material I bought (canvas) is too bulky for a wallet as I have to fold twice on the edges making it too bulcky. Without sawing when folded, the string of the edges comes off making it impossible to last. I have sent pictures of another material that is great in making wallets as you specified .
Kind regards
Winfred
We figured it out, I think:) (Automatic translation)
Hi. Yes we did. This is the final product. Very strong and durable. I hope you like it ☺️. Thank you very much for the patience and choosing urban chage lab. I would like your confirmation if the wallet in the picture matches the initial one.
Kind regards
Winnie
Yes, I like it. Thank you very much! (Automatische Übersetzung)
Hey Claudia,
This is Vicky, the local operations manager. I just received your wallet from Winnie, and I have to say, it looks fantastic! The material she used gives it a beautifully sturdy look and feel. I’ve taken a few close-up photos for you to get a better view of what you’ll be receiving. Take a look below, and let us know your thoughts!
Warmest regards,
Vicky Achieng.
Thanks for the quality control and the photos, looks great! I'm looking forward to the product! (Automatic translation)
Hey Claudia,
We’d like to confirm that you’re fully satisfied with the wallet. I also wanted to mention that the card slots aren’t all exactly the same size; at least one slot has a slight height difference, as you can see from the fit of the first two cards. Could you let us know if this fit works for you?
Best regards,
Vicky Achieng.
Okay, as long as the cards fit in good, I am fine with it! (Automatische Übersetzung)
