Thank you so much! I just splurged on myself and spent $100 for a lot of 15 Coach bags, some are DIRTY!! But I am so excited to finally, at 41, get my first designer anything. ❤❤
Your post made me smile. I cannot afford expensive purses because all my money goes into my cat rescue. I shop yard sales and thrift stores so I can carry designer bags. I will tell someone where I got them if they ask, but mostly I just keep it to myself. I am proud of being thrifty.
What an EXCITING FIND!!!!!!
Dish detergent and water is what I use on every bag and ive never had any issues
I took my coach bag to the car wash. Covered it in woolight, and sprayed it clean. I did not want to brush it. I just layed a towel down, and washed it with the car wash sprayer. Its beautiful!
I went to yard sales yesterday, and found two nice Coach purses (I am a big Coach fan also). I was thrilled, but knew I would have to get some tips on cleaning them. Yours was the first video I saw. I love designers purses, but my animal rescue takes up most of my resources so I have to buy them used. Thanks for the advice. I am subscribing.
I have a pretty nice collection 2nd hand. I always use pencil cases in my bags. It is amazing what you can save with some saddle soap and shoe polish etc.
I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship were are you from?
I’m so glad I found this video best one I’ve found for cleaning purses can’t wait to try on my own!! So happy !! thank you tons!!!
WOW! what a great job and I love that style of Coach!!!!!!!!
Thankyou for this video! I just picked up a vintage Coach bag from a thrift store! Similar to this one! 😍😍😍
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!
Hi there, I use resolve carpet cleaner plus a variety of other and it works great! I rinse mine under water prior to hanging outside though. Looks nice! I cannot believe how dirty some of the purses were that I cleaned. It’s like they were dragged in the mud after Ink and everything else was thrown inside… 😅
I know! How do these purses get so dirty?
Just wet to goodwill bins and found soooo much coach purses lol only spent $40 on 3 bags full
Amazing! Thanks for the great advice!
Does the Blue Coral cleaner not leave any residue? Being me... I would be tempted to rinse it first! Looks great! Good work!
Thank you. No it doesn’t.
LOVE IT THANKS AND LOVE THE LAVA LAMP KEEPING IT REAL :)
Wow, looks new.
You are awesome. Thanks for the cleaning tip.
Thank you so much for the tips!
Thank You for this video.
You’re welcome 😊
Oh my thank you soo much!!!
Thanks for this video 🙌🏻
These types of coach bags(fabric), I put 8 of them in the washing machine and they came out perfectly. I purchased them for 10.00 a piece and sold them for $89.00 a piece . They were spotless when they came out of the machine and they smell fresh and were free of chemical residue. I Air dried them and they came out perfect! I took that chance since I got them from Goodwill and they were very dusty. It paid off!!! The leather was not compromised in any way.
Thank you! ❤
Nice video and information thank you
Thank you 🙏🏼 ❤
Thank you for sharing this video, 🙂
You’re welcome ☺️
How would you suggest getting an ink stain off of the outer canvas of the purse?
Try alcohol
hi very interested. where do you sell your thrifted items. Im from the Philippines
What is the name if the spray you used? Thank you mam
Blue coral
I cleaned my white ocelot print coach purse with your methods and it worked fantastic except around the leather trim. It looks great when I clean it but when it dries the underside of the leather bleeds orange onto the purse. Any ideas? Thanks!
Apply masking tape to the leather around the edges to avoid getting it wet and it bleeding onto the fabric again. In order of most gentle to most aggressive:
Try a Tide to-go pen. If that doesn’t work, try rubbing alcohol on a q-tip. I’ve had good luck using alcohol based gel hand sanitizer, as it doesn’t dry as quickly as plain isopropyl. If neither of those work, try acetone. It’s important to not get the acetone on the leather, as it will remove the dye. Good luck ❤
Just found your channel & newly subbed ❤️
Will this work on the leather coach too 😢
I have another video for cleaning leather
Anyone knows how to clean nubuck or suede??? Help, please🎉
I would use suede cleaner and a suede brush
My thrifted coach purse has a brown stain on the inner lining 😢 what can i use to get it out?
Depends on what the stain is
Hi i have one that's similar to this it's a coach beige/brown signature canvas and tote one but it got ink and some of the thread is out and the some leather has come off do you have any ideas on how to re sew on a tote bag 😊 thanks
I don’t with the sewing, sorry
@@thethriftyjewel thats ok i try looking around some more thanks for answering 👍😗
Idea for removing ink stain: use pink soap (that miracle soap in a tub,) gently rub it into stain, let it sit overnight, then use dish detergent in water, using a scrubby, to coax nasty ink stain out. This method works for me. Hope comment helps.🙃
@@darcydiamond8645 ok I try this out thanks
Go to good shoemaker as many do repair leather goods
Thank you for making this! I wish I could show you the before and after of my thrift store find!
If you were going to sell it, what would you have listed it for?
I’ve got comments that this one is fake. I wouldn’t sell it because of that. But I have sold Coach purses on eBay and Poshmark and I always look up comps and list depending on those
i got a coach purse online but its made of cloth, it was in good condition though its got a spotty metallic leather already . so anyway, one of the the stitched on C's started to fray a bit and i didnt even use it yet. im afraid brushing it would make the threads fray even more. is there a way to prevent that from happening while cleaning. sorry for my english, its not my first language. thank you.
I would be really careful with the threads. A brush might pull them out
I got a pink Coach Poppy purse that I LOVE but the bottom is getting so dirty that I stopped using it because I don't know how to clean it 😭
But its also not this same material. It's a softer canvas-y type. Is this spray safe for that?
I have another video on cleaning 3 Coach purses. Maybe one of those is similar
$4.99, or $499?
4.99
Stop talking
Wow lol stop watching
you’re literally my comfort person i love you #LVGUCI
My daughter loves to find purses and seeing all dirty coach bags we pass by. Now I can clean one up for her. Cause at 13 she is of course using limited monies but she knows thrifting jewelry and bags keeps them out of the dump. :)
I love that! I’ve been thrifting since I was an early teen as well. I have another video also on cleaning Coach bags where I immerse them in the sink. You should check it out.
@@thethriftyjewel I definitely will watch. I will also be checking out your resale online. Thanks so much!
I was surprised you don’t rinse off the cleaning product? I have Gucci half leather half canvas bag. The canvas is grubby looking. Wondering if I should try your method. Thank you.
@@hanatan9639 I was surprised too that she didn't rinse it off. Why didn't you rinse it off?????
You are awesome, thanks so much for this. My fiancé' has several designer purses that she plans to get rid of because they are dirty and she no longer wants them. My plan is to clean them up and donate them to ladies in my church. I'll let you know how they turn out. Thanks again....
That is wonderful! yes let me know
I appreciated your video. I found in my closet shelf a coach bag that my husband bought for me in 2008. It is dirty, I remember now why I stopped using. I had no idea how to clean it. I couldn't throw it out, after all he bid for it on eBay for $295.00. Again thank you so much.
I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship were are you from?
Thank you I also sell vintage coach I use acetone with a toothbrush to remove ink spots. But I'm definitely gonna get that cleaner. And yes you have to be very careful using acetone on leather.
My first though as she sprayed was will it hurt the leather. Thank you
I saw a vintage DIRTY Fossil bag at my local goodwill and they had the nerve to price it at $27 lmao. Such a shame, it needed some love. $5 is good deal for sure!
Oh my, that is ridiculous
That's sad
That’s why I take mine to The Budget Shop and/ or The Encore Shop in my town!!
My daughter shared your channel with me!! I can’t wait to clean the ones I’m donating!!
I got a vintage jacquard tote and I put mine in the washer. It came out fine. I bought it from a seller.
It didn't damage the leather strap or trim?
@@Kiki-uk9rgleather can get wet, it just needs to be conditioned so it doesn’t crack as it dries.
Cowboy boots and hats are leather and and are meant for all conditions. But they are habitually taken care of by the owners.
Wow looks brand new! Very informative thanks for sharing!
Thank you 😊
Thank you so much for the tips! I just bought a couple of bags at the thrift and needed to know how to clean them, very helpful vid
Thank you for watching! I just did another video on cleaning Coach purses with another method. It’s my newest video. Go check it out! The purses came out great
This is a great idea! Never would've thought of upholstery cleaner. Just got a thrifted Coach bag for $20. Bet you can guess why it was only $20... 💀
Thank you!
Denatured alcohol will take those ink stains right out.
I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship were are you from?
Thank you so much for going through this, that was so helpful! I watched your video where you soaked some ThredUp Coach bags. Do you have any guidelines or tips for when you soak them vs when you do this method? Thank you again!
Thank you for watching! The purses from thredup were much more dirtier then this one. I decided they needed a deeper cleaning. I would use this method for a purse that just needs a good wipe down and soaking depending on how dirty they are.
I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship were are you from?
Thanks so much for sharing your tips on how to clean Coach and other handbags.
thanks so much… i have a coach wallet 2000’s that my mom gave me when I was 9 years old. I am now 22 & I have used it so much but its SO dirty😂😂 I was too scared to wash it. Yours is the same exact color & fabric as mine also.
Wow! That came out amazing! Very impressive.
I wonder if it will work as well on the Fendi purse that I recently got.
My concern is the lining. It is green, and it's really filthy
Thanks this was a great post. I just bought the cleaner on Amazon. In Canada it is very expensive over $30 but I’ve seen a few people recommend it. I’m excited to try it! Thanks for the rubbing alcohol tip! I’ve put back many bags because of ink stains so I’m excited to be able to treat them. It will open things up for me as far as reselling!
Wow that is expensive! Yes I’ve used alcohol on lots of items to remove ink. Thanks for watching!!
I found it at Walmart for $15.02.
Hi I just wanted to know the name of the cleaning product?
I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship were are you from?
I just bought a Coach purse recently that is I would say dark pink and there are a few spots on the handles where it is splitting open. Is there anything that I can do for this? Have you fixed any with this issue?
Have any tips how to get smoke smell out of my coach wallet I bought pre loved?
I throw mine in the washing machine. Comes out clean every time
Thank you for a great video after seeing this I cleaned several of my interior coach bags. This stuff really works, but I have a leather yellow coach back with a small black stain. Do you think this product will work as well with a leather bag?
I've been following your channel and really enjoy working on these purses. I have one now, a Coach bag that the brown leather trim is flaking of in a few spots. Do you know of a way to repair that? Thank You!
I’m not sure how to repair it but Dr Martens Wonder Balsam is great to condition leather. Maybe conditioning would help
@@thethriftyjewel Thanks for this really helpful and awesome video!
@@soundsthatsoothe9940 you’re welcome
I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship were are you from?
I put mine in the washer 🤷🏼♀️
How did it work and what detergent do you recommend?
What do you use on coach Carley gold signature purses that is shiny? I got a great boho bag at the thrift store and it has a few spots I need to clean.
Spot clean it
Thanks great information.
Awesome job! I’m curious if you were to sell that bag what would you want for it?
Not sure but most likely under $50
I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship were are you from?
It sounded like you rinsed the purse, but didn’t show. Was that the case? Thank you for the helpful video!
Yes
@@thethriftyjewel with cold water only?
Thank you so much for your instructions on how to clean my coach purs e using Blue Coral! I cleaned a Coach Carley and it came out like brand new! Am so excited! God Bless!
Honestly put it in washing machine gentle spin. Low temp. Will be fine
I really want to try the washing machine, what type of detergent would you you recommend?
I always had trouble with ink. Thanks!
You’re welcome.
I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship were are you from?
I appreciate this Vid
I don't know what it is but I just can't get motivated to sell I think it's the shipping part seriously 😳
Thats the part I like lol I dont know why
If you ship via USPS, you can use their boxes and schedule a pick up at your home. I started selling my bags over the past two years and USPS was the best shipping method. I also ordered and printed my shipping labels from USPS.
Thanks for the tips. Just bought a white one which isn't too bad and needs some tlc. Passed on another that was really nice but very, very dirty.
I stopped buying Coach bags when they stopped using leather inside tag. Glad l have the old bags. That was lousy idea. ❤
ok I knew this had to be a few years old. Goodwill thinks those bags are now worth $40-$50 dirty and in bad condition
Thanks for sharing. Great tip! By the way, what type of material is the purse in this video? Thanks in advance for your reply :)
Hi, this is a very helpful video! Thank you. Would you know if it works on bright colors and nylon fabrics? Like vibrant pink nylon bag? :)
I watched this video three weeks ago because I was looking for a cleaner for my Coach handbag that is colored with my cosmetics. After watching this video, I bought and used this cleanser introduced here. Unfortunately, it was not good and the color of the Cosmetic has not removed from my coach brand bag.
Yea some stains are just stubborn. Here’s another method for cleaning you can check out. th-cam.com/video/IXBrwJQzHV4/w-d-xo.html
Thank you! Definitely going to try it.
I have a very similar coach bag. I have had it for 11 years now
Thank you for the video. I will be buying the cleaner tonight on Amazon. I recently bought two beautiful Fossil purses at Goodwill and they smell of cigarette smoke. Do you have any tips on getting rid of the smoke smell. I love these purses and couldn't leave them even with the smell. I was hoping I would find a way to get rid of the smell. Any info would be appreciate. Thanks again. I'm glad I came across your video.
Use dryer sheets to get rid of that smell and air out lot !
Have you done this on any of the lighter color bags? I have a cream bag that is filthy but so cute
This should work and I have another video I done on cleaning Coach bags and one of them is light.

Hi and thank you. I live in Canada and would any upholstery spray cleaner work to your knowledge. Please advise and again my thanks.
Yes, it should
Can we also clean this kind of bag with saddle soap? Thank you btw for your great video!
Yes you can!
All you do folks is throw the Coach purse in the washer on delicate and hang to dry. It comes out brand new!
No way!! I would do it the way utuber did...
Have you tried professional dry cleaning ? Or oxy clean ?
No
Please send me a copy if the cleaning products you used. Thank you
It’s all in the description thank you
Hi, I've watched your videos and I've learned quite a bit about cleaning purses. I did run into one that totally stumps me. It's a small Coach purse with some sort of ink transfer on it. I think it's saffiano leather and I have tried EVERYTHING from hairspray to baby wipes and nothing has worked so far. I even tried Amodex, which is usually great to no avail. I'm not afraid to try anything on it as it's no good as it is. Any thoughts? Ideas? HELP!! TY in advance!!
Not sure what color it is but would you consider dyeing it dark to hide the ink transfer?
Did you try alcohol
Does that bag have C's on the lining??? I think it is fake.
I ended up keeping it. I used it as an example for cleaning bags.
Coach bags don't always have 'C'in the lining. Great info. I just subscribed. I'm an atypical reseller, 54 yr old male retired electrician, shhhh! It's a great way to make a few extra bucks and stay up to date in the world of what's hot and what's not! Helps pay for my hobbies and vices. I dabble in purses mainly because I'm good at spotting quality craftsmanship and Coach fits the bill. For years I complained to my Ex about the price of her purses until I took the time to really examine them..I was converted. Thanks again, I'll be checking all your other videos
Cheers
@@kevinroy1053 thanks!
yes. if the bag has C's on the exterior, their lining will always have( i think) just one solid color.
@@supergirl1386 yes, that’s correct.
thank you very much
Beautiful!
Thank you for sharing 🥰
Coach cleans bags for FREE!!!!
More info on Coach cleaning bags for free.
Would this be okay to use on a black coach purse? I just thrifted one today and its a ll black and scared it will bleach it
I have a black coach also and used the cleaner and it came out fine.
Yes
Hi! Very good video. In it, you say, a warm washcloth. Can you expound on that part, please? Warm wet/dry?? And you said that you rinsed it, but again, I'm not sure about the moisture level? IMHO, maybe do only half of the bag for a comparison? Try not to say, UM or UH. I do a tiny bit of reselling on Poshmark. Ebays search engine is WAY, too stupid. It doesn't know that shoes come in half sizes! I will subscribe 🙂👍
I used a warm wet wash cloth. I just did another video where I cleaned Coach purses with another method. Check it out! Thanks so much for watching!
