I bought a purse; it is cream colored with silver Coach letters all over the purse. When I ordered it, I thought it was all silver. I don't like the cream color. I was wondering if I could dye it black, but still keep the letters silver?

Dying Leather Purse
I have a purple purse and I would like to know if you dye leather and bake the dye into the purse so it does not come off. The shoe maker place told me you have to bake the dye to make it stay from coming off. I want it dyed black.
