- What started out a restoration of this pink Chanel bag, took a turn for the better. The leather was just to worn out to bring back so I decided to make her a NEW bag. Used the same hardware but everything is brand new.

Steve: "It's not a Chanel bag from the factory." No. It's not. It's MUCH better. They wish their mass produced bags looked this good. Well done Steve.
😢Steve, I understand what it feels like losing a brother. I love the way you honored his memory in this video by restoring and wearing his apron. Another amazing video….let’s continue 🙏🏾
I was wondering the same.Thanks for sharing your family history with us.
As always, you made an item better than it was when you received it. Technically, the moment the owner dyed the bag pink it was no longer a Chanel factory bag so the critical views are unfounded. The owner is going to love the new lamb skin that is softer and more genuine than what she had. It was also touching to see you so lovingly refurbish your brother's apron. It is far cooler than what you had!! Look forward to your next project.
There are owner after it’s fixed will sell it on line for $5000 or more to desperate person that thinks she got a good deal. 😅😂
I think touching up the corners is fine for a vintage bag. If you do repaint the bag it is still considered a real Chanel bag, but the value will go down quite a bit.
Chanel repaints bags all the time. I'm betting the tab was from another bag, repainted at the factory - if not the entire bag.
If the customer wants it then we aren’t the ones to say no. It’s hers and nobody else’s. I love the fact that you can do this for her.
I know I've said this before, but I'll say it again. I really appreciate the fact that you include mistakes in your videos. I think too many people I think you have to be perfect in your work, when in reality how you respond to mistakes is a much better gauge of character. Thanks for sharing your brother's apron as well. 🙏
It always makes me happy to see people actually using their luxury goods
You make such a good point about stepping away sometimes after a mistake is made. Helps to just clear your mind and come back with a new frame of mind and much less frustrated. Continuing when you’re frustrated has never resulted in happy ending with me when doing a project.
Your work is stunning! Such quality and craftsmanship!
Your apron will be I a museum one day
I know this is a leather repair channel, but my goodness that cup of coffee he made for himself looked incredible.
Not a Chanel but a nouveau chanel revival. You bring life to pieces which would never have been used again if not for your wonderful hands creating this artwork. Thank you for letting us see how you create.
I watch you to unstress from the craziness of the world
You should show the customers reaction
Just a comment to help the channel. Let’s continue 👍
This is what the world needs - to care for and restore the items you love. So good for the Earth.
My wife is watching the world championship soccer Netherlands - Argentinia and i am watching a pink bag redone by the best cobbler ever. Grtz from the Netherlands!
They “restore” cars every day that start out as a pile of rust with a title. Hopefully they can reuse the motor, transmission, and rear end. The hardware so to speak. Is it a 57 Chevy or a 68 Camaro? Why yes it is. They have the papers to prove it. Same with this bag. It’s not a cheap knockoff made in China by slave labor. This bag is made as well as the original, maybe even better.
Better.
Well put. I'd say it's better now because it's made in the USA! ;)
You’re right about taking a break when things go wrong. It just makes things worse to continue straight on. Egos need to be stroked, especially if you are a perfectionist.
I'm confident that a "Custom Made by Bedos" is higher class than anything that comes out of a factory. And I'm impressed by how well the quilting lines match when it is closed!
Agree, he is amazing
1000%
I’ve worked for one of their quality control in a workshop and this work is impeccable ! For some people in the comment, I get their point but The difference between this beautiful piece and what’s made in workshops is that this vintage bag has way better leather and metal pieces than what they have now which helps a lot in the final design but the quality of the products is still very high quality. The difference resides in the quality of the matters not the quality of the leather work ! The only thing missing on this gem is “sharpening” the edges and angles by hammering them, the result is bluffing. I just discovered this channel it’s always lovely to see a passionate and gifted leather smith thank you
It is a Chanel bag. It is just remade. It isn't illegal. He remade the exact same purse.
I missed your coffee times , thanks for sharing 😉
Bedo, you are a real MichaelAngelo.
Another awesome job sir. I love that you can show us your ability to "screw things up" once in a while. It helps us understand it happens to the best of them and it's not just us "regular folks" who feel like we're the only ones who struggle with accidents or "bonehead" mistakes. I think many of us put you on a pedestal of excellence and wonder if we'll ever get to your standard of craftsmanship.
Thanks for sharing your abilities and personal life with the us. We appreciate it more than you know.
Merry Christmas to you and your family.
The new bag came out looking absolutely great, and I love that you’re wearing your brother’s apron.
Hai Bedo, it’s nog the original no it is, it’s much better then the original! Beautiful 👍👏👊. B2W, I also like that apron you’ve showed at the beginning. Good that you’ve a nice memory of your brother 🤜
I love the detail on the back where the quilt pattern on the pocket matches the body of the purse exactly. The craftsman at Channel would be proud to call it their own. Great job as always!👍😎
That apron is awesome!!
No sense in making the same mistake twice, walk away, calm down, change your mindset.
I love the pride you take in giving the customer the very best you can.
Knocked this one outta the park!
May the love in your brother's apron bring you health, wealth and happiness.
Wow! Absolutely beautiful! This is a masterpiece Steve. Awesome job! What a lucky lady to receive this beautiful piece.
Amazing work done. Looks brand new like it was just bought from the store. I can see why she would want it restored considering that's a vintage style and they used 24k gold plating on that hardware which they do not do anymore. You've created a better bag than what you can buy in stores nowadays with so much care and though behind it. 🤩
That's why I don't sew. I just don't have the patience. You do a great job. Love watching your videos.
Your brother’s apron is a thing of beauty. Incredible knowledge and wisdom held in all those folds and creases.
Steve, you represent your craft well, and you take care of your customers. And you are so talented! Keep on keeping on!
I don't care about brands or fashion so this is way cooler to me because she now has a hand crafted, brand new bag built by master craftsman. Maybe you need to start making your own BLW bags.
Wow outstanding result for your client just beautiful and may I say your client has a much better handbag than she had but most importantly you have let us see your world of expertise and outstanding craftsmanship so thank you .

"Sometimes silence is the best conversation." So true. So very true. I'm still learning that I need to walk away and regroup when I don't have things go right. Thank you for the reminder. The bag came out great! Real Chanel, not real Chanel, who cares - the customer is HAPPY. That's all that matters.
Steve gave my Golden Goose sneakers a new lease on life and I’m forever a fan. Protect this man at all costs! ❤
Nice Steve, very, very nice.
Ohhhhhhh whalllllll to start with your brothers apron amazing…….I’d hang it on the wall along with dads pictures….👍🏻👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
When my Mom was teaching me how to sew she told me when you start making mistakes it's time to stop, walk away and leave the project for another time. You are correct that's the only way to do a good job and keep your sanity. The bag is beautiful!!
The pink leather is just beautiful. You are a true artisan.
❤it’s a BEDO - even better!❤
All I can say is wow!! Bravo!! This was an amazing turnout!!
Great job and for those who always have a negative comment hope they have a wonderful day and a Merry Christmas 👍🏼👏🏼
Easy top 5 favorites.
My day is not complete without some Hammer Time 😁
🤣🤣🤣
Great work! True craftsman here👍🇺🇲
You got a gifted craftsmanship from God 👌👌👌👏👏👏
You made the bag do much better! Genius 🎉
I know it sucked, but it was sort of inspiring to see how you dealt with that mishap. I do several small DIY projects at home and I'm way too quick to say F it and give up. Even a great craftsman like you has mess ups. And I really mean that as a compliment because of how you handle them. Thanks, Steve.
Good job much better to the original make.
Oh your brother’s apron 😢 -that is so amazing, it’s wonderful that you have him with you as you work your magic, that apron is a work of art. May he forever Rest In Peace ❤️❤️❤️ The Chanel is a beautiful labor of love, that is one lucky woman to have her bag restored by you 👛
I was not sure I was going to watch this one, I've watched every other video you have made, so must have been the color or something. Anyhow, so glad I did watch it, as it was a remarkable achievement. Great work.
Your bag is probably going to be made better then the Chanel was originally.
I don't why it bothers people. Because it's all originally hardwmare, made with better products. I think is awesome.
Just beautiful. It actually looks a whole lot better than the original bag.
Wow, simply AWSOME!!!
So sorry for your lost 🙏
The color is gorgeous, a flawless new bag.
He is so right to sometimes just walk away from a job, regroup and return refreshed with a clear head. This is how analytical work turns successful.
Excellent work again.
I almost cried watchng you touch your brothers apron.. it was so spiritual to watch ..hang in there
Wow!
The work (dare I say) you have done is far better than the stuff that is being churned out from the Chanel factories these days judging by the quality issues the bags are having recently.
Excellent advice too on how to recover and regroup when things don't go the way you want it!
Just watched another video by Bedo, & enjoyed once again watching a master craftsmanship at work.👍👍
art fine art
Frankly its better than a Chanel bag, since you recreated this bag from a original design. Don't listen to the nay sayers. The finished product says it all, you are the best.
Love your bro's apron. 👍
I want to fast forward to see the end result but Steve always explain about the original materials and I like that part. He’s honest about what’s cheap and what isn’t
Wear you brothers apron and remember him with a smile.
Amazing job! There are days that I envy you just for the fact that you get to work with your hands.. I find it very rewarding. I enjoy viewing your videos.. is a break for me and your Philosophy. It makes take life easy . Thanks for sharing.
Great job 👏 👍 👌
Your work is lovely. A little depressing that not only will I never be able to afford a bag like this new or afford to have it fixed if I tripped over a free bag.
A nice example o theseus' ship dilemma.
Losing a brother is one of the hardest things to go through , that's someone you're supposed to get old old with and argue about who's going to bury who . I lost one of my not too older brother's just over a year ago Awesome to see you get his apron spruced up and wear it . On the video 🤌 as always I think I'd rather give my wife a bag made by you .
As the youngest I've lost all three of my brothers. 😭 Time truly does much for taking the sting out. Of course I'll always miss them and my parents. I still have a sister, a wife and two sons, one daughter and six grandchildren.
i dont care what anyone else says, that is a work of art, and it looks amazing.
You did an amazing job as always. To the owner it’s still a Chanel bag. ❤
Im glad you did all new leather, that old leather was too far gone
What a beautiful shade of pink. Great job❤❤❤
Nice work!
Bedo's Leatherworks: Where the counterfeit is superior to the original!
😁
I would pay a pretty penny for a bag made buy any bag or shoe which you repair or better yet, your own brand. Great video and some pearls of wisdom meshed in there too.
When i see my notification and i see that bedos upload a video. I smile and feel happy as a kid in a candy store. Please more videos. We need it…
I like your comments and attitude, very true and inspirational
you are a very talented craftsman🎉.
Beautiful. It is a Chanel, just restored. Sometimes there's no help for it, leather wears out. Professional restorers replace like for like all the time.
Even when things don't go wrong, it's a good idea to take at least two minutes to pause. Often times, the mistake isn't a result of carelessness, rather of riding a high into one. I just lean back, stretch a bit, exercise my fingers, listen to one song, clear my mind. Does wonders every few hours.
Steve that was an amazing transformation and in my humble opinion you have improved the build. Next the ladies will be asking for a Bedo's bag instead of a LV or Channel. Brilliant!
Mission impossible possible. Proof here. Must admit this pink is a perfect encore to the original.
“Sometimes silence is the best form of conversation.” I like that. As someone who has to spend long stretches of time on my own, I might remember that. 👍
What a precious gift from your brother, to inherit his apron. Wear it and remember him with love!
I want one now. Beautiful
Amazing restoration Steve, I’m sure the customer will be thrilled with the restored purse.
Great stuff Steve. As a leather crafter myself I carve and tool a ton of leather and mistakes are made. Most don’t know there may have been an error on my part but I do and therefore I have to start over. I understand and appreciate you so much for doing life/leather work correctly!
Also Steve, that apron of your brothers is amazing and I am jealous!
That looks fabulous
Amazing work!!!!
Steve it looks much better than what Chanel put out and quality is way up. Yes it's a lot of money but if the customer using it for 20 years or so it's not much, she can hand it over to her daughter/granddaughter. I personally don't care to have a name tag on it as long it's quality stuff I never liked to pay just for a name.You have outdone yourself and it's true when you work on something and it goes wrong, walk away and do some other stuff or go for a walk.
... the apron... touched me more deeply than I would have expected.
Blessings
Bick 4 to the rescue. So glad you conditioned your brother's apron. Even if you put it somewhere safe, the feeding of the leather was vital. The bag looks great. If a customer wants something, you give it to them. No one else's opinion matters. I hope the woman really loves the bag. How could she not? Something new I noticed today. Your 'wheel' sewing machine. The wheel is powered. I never realized that. Thanks Steve.
Excellent call on replacing everything! Well done! It looks awesome!
It turned out awesome....I'm sure the client is going to love it. The materials you used are most likely better than what Chanel used...so the bag is actually more bespoke now.
Omg, your work is absolutely incredible.
