Hi all!
I am planning to start a small project (it will be a present) and am thinking to make a luggage tag.
I still have a small scrap of LV monogram canvas and want to create my own version of their tag. the idea is to produce an hybrid between these 2 models (after the pictures I will put my questions for you):
I would like to have your opinions concerning this:
- Idea 1: to make one side of vegtan and the other of monogram Canvas and the strap would be made of vegtan as well. Would it look nice?
- Idea 2: Depending on the material used in the front part, I will have to choose the thread color (brown if canvas, maybe yellow or any other light color if vegtan). Idem with the edge paint. So: which material would you use in it’s front ? Which edge and thread colors?
- Idea 3: use novonappa i/o vegtan. I have gold and black novonappa. What do you think?
- Should I modify the shape of this tag to make it more personalized?
- Do you have any other opinion that would like to share?
Of course, I will be always thankful for your sincere feedback!!! 👌

Hey Maru,
Don't know if it is too late, but I would do it in full Novonappa Gold and the strap in Vuitton. That way, it is obvious it is your work and your creation, but you used the Vuitton Canvas as a vintage "addition".
My opinion is, if you design and make the most awesome product in the word and use the LV canvas, the attention and value will always be the LV Canvas. Your product's value will go unoticed. But if you make it using Novonappa, the product will speak for itself and will be valued for your work. The strap in LV Canvas will only add some little value (and more "moral" value that anything")
Maru, you are a creative person., I would love to see what you come up with on your own using your own materials rather than the Louis Vuitton artifact.
