Challenge 697: The accordion bag
I was on the tube the other day (that's the London Underground, for those of you unfamiliar with it) and spotted this rather splendid handbag, made to look like an accordion. Notice how the keys are stitched on: 
It made me wonder - how many other instruments could be repurposed in such an appealing way? Can you make me a bag, or other container, from a musical instrument? |

Re: Challenge 697: The accordion bag
It's a very funny bag - but I don't think the designer has really exploited the idea. It's simply an appliquéd design that hasn't really been integrated. I bet we can do better here!!! _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

It's best to stay well clear of funny bags you find on trains! |

BAG PIPES It was inevitable that someone would be unable to resist this pun. So let's get it out of the way ........

Re: Challenge 697: The accordion bag
I just noticed that Steve also said "or other container". So last ditch effort. If one these doesn't exist I feel it should. A challenge for one of you cobble together furniture and accessory makers .......?  _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

Well that definitely qualifies as "other container" ....... I am ashamed to admit that my dream might have been a little less modest ....... _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

Ha, ha. Dave bagged it. He purse-sued the challenge with gusto. He's on a roll! Nice entries through the last weeks everyone. _________________ The grass is greener on the other side of the fence because there is more $hit there. |

Re: Challenge 697: The accordion bag
I just couldn't find any inspiration this week so I had a cup of tea and waited for inspiration to come to me ... I'm still waiting. http://vimeo.com/260960778 For those of you not familiar with the singer or song, he is Bernard Cribbins a well-loved British comic actor. 'Right Said Fred' is about some workmen dismally failing to move what is believed to be a piano. It was recorded in 1962 and became a hit for Cribbins reaching no 10 in the pop charts. I let the animation run so that I could get in most of the song. _________________  |
