Alright, so, I’ve been eyeing this RemakePRADA Small Prada Galleria Saffiano Special Edition Bag for a while now. Sounds fancy, right? PRADA. Big name. But I wanted to see if I could, you know, do it myself. Make one.

I started by looking at every picture I could find online. I mean I really studied this bag. Every angle, every stitch. The original is from their 2023 collection. This bag, they call it the Galleria Bag. It’s brown and red, that Saffiano leather, with some gold hardware, you know the deal. Looks simple enough but also kinda classy. It’s got those rolled handles, and the inside is lined with leather. Fancy, huh?

Then, I got to work gathering materials. Finding that perfect shade of brown and red for the leather was a real pain, let me tell you. I went to so many stores, looked at so many samples. This part took me several days. I finally found something close enough and bought them. Then I found these gold-tone hardwares, the buckles and the rings and stuff, in a little shop downtown. It was like a treasure hunt. I also bought some sturdy fabric for the inner lining, ’cause I read somewhere that original Prada bags have a ceramic or leather logo plaque inside, depending on whether the bag itself is leather or not. I went with leather, ’cause that’s what I was using for the outside, you know?

  • Searched everywhere for the right materials.
  • Got the brown and red Saffiano-like leather.
  • Found the gold-tone hardware.
  • Picked up some leather for the lining.

Next, I had to cut the leather. Now, this was tricky. I’m no expert, but I watched a bunch of videos online, and I had a basic pattern drawn out. I measured, like, a hundred times before I made a single cut. Slow and steady, that’s what I kept telling myself. I cut out the pieces for the front, back, sides, bottom, and those little rolled handles. It’s not perfect, but it’s mine.

Sewing it all together was the hardest part. I don’t have one of those fancy sewing machines, so I did it all by hand. Took forever. My fingers were so sore, but I kept going. I stitched the panels together, added the hardware, and then carefully sewed in the leather lining. I even tried to make a little logo plaque for the inside, just like the real Prada bags have. It’s not ceramic, and it’s definitely not perfect, but hey, it’s there.

In the end, after a lot of work, many days, I have a bag that kinda, sorta, looks like the RemakePRADA Small Prada Galleria Saffiano Special Edition Bag. It’s not exactly the same, but it’s got that same vibe, you know? And the best part is, I made it myself!

I learned a lot during this whole thing. It’s way harder than it looks to make a bag, especially one that’s supposed to be all fancy and high-end like a Prada. But I’m pretty proud of what I accomplished. It’s a good reminder that sometimes, it’s fun to just try and make something yourself, even if it’s not perfect. And hey, I saved a lot of money! I saw that a real Prada can cost over ¥5,000,000. They say it can even be a good investment. Mine? Well, it’s priceless to me.

Now I’m thinking, what should I try to make next? Maybe a wallet? Or some shoes? The possibilities are endless! It’s all about the journey, right?
